Treatment

Cassia mimosoides Linnaeus View in CoL , Species Plantarum 1: 379. 1753 View Cited Treatment .

"Habitat in Zeylona." RCN: 2984.

Lectotype (Larsen & Larsen in Aubréville & Leroy, Fl. Cambodge Laos Viêt-Nam 18: 105. 1980): Herb. Hermann 2: 13, No. 154 (BM-000594576) .

Current name: Chamaecrista mimosoides (L.) Greene View in CoL ( Fabaceae : Caesalpinioideae ).

Note: Although de Wit (in Webbia 11: 284. 1956) stated that the type was "to be based on a Ceylon specimen preserved in the Bibliothèque at Paris", he appears to have made no formal type choice. Brenan (in Milne-Redhead & Polhill, Fl. Trop. E. Africa, Leguminosae 2: 100. 1967) treated the Hermann material (distributed over two pages) as syntypes, and Larsen & Larsen subsequently designated one of them as the lectotype.
