Botanische Jahrbücher 34: 121 (1905). — Ensete holstii (K.Schum.) Cheesman, Kew Bulletin 2: 103 (1948). — Type: [ Tanzania] Tanganyika , West Usambara, (near Sakara), 25.IX.1902, A . Engler 2254 (lecto-, B, designated by Lock [1993: 3], iso-, K000099681 !, BM000911542 !) .

REMARKS

The typification by Baker & Simmonds (1954) is not effective, as they refer to two sheets, which are kept at separate herbaria. This is according to Baker & Simmonds (1954) a synonym of E. edule , i.e. E. ventricosum . However, judged by the structure of inflorescence shown in original description ( Schumann 1905), it is accepted as a good species here.
