Amphithalea imbricata Druce

  • 1. Department of Botany, Natural History Museum, Cromwell Road, London, UK

Description

Crotalaria imbricata Linnaeus, Plantae Rariores Africanae: 16. 1760.

["Habitat ad Cap. b. spei."] Sp. Pl., ed. 2, 2: 1004 (1763). RCN: 5252.

Type not designated.

Original material: Herb. Burman, 4 sheets (G).

Current name: Amphithalea imbricata (L.) Druce (Fabaceae: Faboideae).

Note: Granby (Opera Bot. 80: 16. 1985) selected 890.2 (LINN) as lectotype but the specimen is annotated only with "Borbonia tomentosa" by Linnaeus, and shows no sign of being associated with C. imbricata. It is therefore not original material for the name.
