Spiranthes hostmannii Reichenbach View in CoL in Grisebach (1864: 640)

Holotype: TRINIDAD. S.d., Crueger s.n. ( GOET 013864 View Materials ).

Material of interest: SURINAME. 1843, Hostmann 841 ( G 00169118, GH 00104457, P 00340990, P 00340991). SURINAME. 1843, Hostmann 368 ( P 00585474).

The specimen GOET 013864 is the holotype of this species since Grisebach (1864) cited only material collected by Crueger in Trinidad in his protologue. However, it is not clear whether Grisebach saw other material. Hence, we treat this species here in more detail. In the diagnosis of the species Grisebach (1864: 640) does not provide leaf characteristics, indicating that his specimen might be lacking leaves as is the case in GOET 013864. The name Spiranthes hostmannii was obviously used by Reichenbach, but we were not able to find a valid species description. Since Grisebach (1864) used the same species name, one might guess that he had seen the material collected by Hostmann.
