Celmisia rupestris Cheeseman 1884

Description

42. Celmisia rupestris Cheeseman (1884: 409).

Type:— NEW ZEALAND. South Island, Ravines on Mt Peel, Nelson, alt. 5000 ft., Jan 1881, T.F. Cheeseman s.n. (lectotype AK 9696! designated here).

Notes:— Allan (1961: 616) lectotypified C. rupestris based on AK 9699, indicating the collection date as Jan. 1882. However, the label indicates Jan. 1886, which is after the species description, and therefore, it cannot be a type specimen. There are also specimens at Kew (K 882099 [image!]) and Te Papa (WELT SP4531!, SP4532!) without a date, and some others with a date after the description (e.g. CHR 10201!, AK 9698!, AK 9697!), which indicates that Cheeseman visited the type locality more than once. Therefore, it is not possible to know if the specimens without a date correspond to syntypes (they could have been collected after the description). The specimen I have selected as lectotype (AK 9696), superseding the previous one (ICN Art. 9.19, Turland et al. 2018), is the only one matching the protologue with a collection date before the species description.
