6. Gardenia hainanensis Merr. View in CoL ( Rubiaceae ) in Lingnan Sci. J. 9(1-2): 43. 1930. TYPE:— CHINA. Hainan: Chengmai , 14 June 1928, W. T. Tsang 700 (i.e. Lingnan University Herbarium 17449) (holotype: UC 373859 image!; isotype: A 00092880 image!, NY 00131579 image!).

Tsang Wai Tak 17449 (UC) was the only gathering cited in the protologue of the name Gardenia hainanensis Merr. (Merrill, 1930). However, the collection number on the label of the holotype specimen is 700, while its herbarium number is Lingnan University Herbarium 17449. Therefore, the collection number cited in the protologue is to be corrected.
