Dolichos fragrans Kerr, Bull. Misc. Inform. Kew 1941(1): 9. 1941.

Type material.

Thailand: Doi Chiang Dao , Steep limestone peak, 14 Mar 1940, H. B. G. Garrett 1167 (lectotype, designated here: K! [ K000900658 ]; isolectotypes BM! [ BM000839653 ], E! [ E00275944 ], L! [ L1952810 ], P! [ P02775596 ]) .

Notes.

According to the protologue ( Kerr 1941), the nomenclatural type of D. fragrans is H. B. G. Garrett 1167. Five syntypes of this gathering were deposited in BM, E, K, L and P and none of them has leaves (the leaves are often caducous when flowering). We designated the sheet K000900658 as the lectotype (Fig. 4 ), because it has many flowers and fruits, both of young and mature and also dissected flowers. The sheets, designated isolectotypes ( BM000839653 , E00275944 , L1952810 , P02775596 ), have fewer flowers and fruits than the sheet deposited at K and they have only flowers and young fruits, but no mature fruits .

The protologue also cites the specimens of Kerr 2854, Put 4480 and de Schauensee 719708. These specimens were also collected from the limestone mountain of Doi Chiang Dao Wildlife Sanctuary and they must be regarded as paratypes, according to Article 9.7 ( Turland et al. 2018).
