Description
Bauhinia divaricata Linnaeus, Species Plantarum 1: 374. 1753.
"Habitat in America." RCN: 2949.
Lectotype (Stearn, Introd. Linnaeus’ Sp. Pl. (Ray Soc. ed.): 47. 1957): [icon] " Bauhinia foliis quinquenerviis: lobis acuminatis remotissimis " in Linnaeus, Hort. Cliff.: 156, t. 15. 1738. - Voucher: Herb. Clifford: 156, Bauhinia 2 (BM).
Generitype of Bauhinia Linnaeus (vide Hitchcock, Prop. Brit. Bot.: 152. 1929).
Current name: Bauhinia divaricata L. (Fabaceae: Caesalpinioideae).
Note: Bauhinia aculeata was treated as the generitype of Bauhinia by Britton & Wilson (Bot. Porto Rico Virgin Is. 5: 362. 1924) (see McNeill & al. in Taxon 36: 362. 1987). However, under 10.5, Ex. 7 (a voted example) of the Vienna Code, this is a type choice made under the American Code and is to be replaced under Art. 10.5b by Hitchcock’s choice (Prop. Brit. Bot.: 152. 1929) of B. divaricata L.
