Description

55. Strobilanthes maclurei Merr.

(Acanthaceae) in Philipp. J. Sci. 21(4): 354. 1922. TYPE:—CHINA. Hainan: Wuzhishan, Wuzhi Shan, alt. 700 m, 21 December 1921, F. A. McClure 2143 (i.e. Canton Christian College Herbarium 8578) (syntype: PNH, destroyed, A 00094307 image!, NY 00278318 image!).

The name Strobilanthes maclurei Merr. was validly published with a single gathering “ McClure 8578 ” cited in the protologue (Merrill, 1922 a). However, on the label of the syntype specimen exists in A, the collecting number is 2143 and the herbarium number is Canton Christian College Herbarium 8578. Therefore, the erroneous collecting number in the protologue is to be corrected.
