Distribution.

Philippines and Malaysia (Borneo: Sabah).

Note O.

Vidal (1886) designated two collections as the type when he described Eriobotrya philippinensis in his work "Revision de Plantas Vasculares Filipinas", therefore, they are syntypes (Art. 9.6: Turland et al. 2018). We herein select the flowering specimen (S. Vidal 1350) as a candidate for the lectotype, however, two duplicates of this collection were located in herbaria K and MA. We must narrow the lectotype to a single sheet. In the 1870s Vidal took up posts in the forestry service of the Philippines, however, in 1883 he was back in Europe and visited the herbaria there including K ( Vidal 1885). Therefore, we herein designate the sheet of S. Vidal 1350 in K (barcode K000758204) as the lectotype.

Note P.

Merrill (1904) described Photinia luzonensis and mentioned two collections (E.D. Merrill 3223 & 3714) in the protologue, and thus they are syntypes (Art. 9.6: Turland et al. 2018). Kalkman (1973) wrote as "Type: Merrill 3223 (K, iso); paratype: Merrill 3714 (BM, K)", which means that he designated Merrill 3223 as the lectotype [first-step]. We located two duplicates in herbaria NY and K, respectively, and thus it is necessary to narrow the lectotype to one single specimen. According to Stafleu and Cowan (1981), Merrill’s type and material are deposited in A, FH, NY, PNH, and UC. We, therefore, designate the sheet in NY (barcode 00436125) as the lectotype [second-step].
