Symoens 11072 ( BR, POZG); Route Kolwezi-Kamina, km 75, 5 Apr 1948, A. Schmitz 1780 ( BR).
Notes.
1. Calyx teeth length is variable; specimens from DR. Congo and Zambia with very short calyx teeth (<2 mm) also tend to have calyx throat that is tomentose inside (e. g. A. Schmitz 1780, J. - J. Symoens 10239). Further work is needed to decide if this represents a distinct taxon or just one extreme of a continuous variation.
2. Lectotypification of Pycnostachys congensis Gürke. Gürke (1896) cited two syntypes of Pycnostachys congensis Gürke ( G. Descamps 27 (syntype B destroyed; isosyntype Z), DR. Congo, Lusambo & G. Descamps 28 (syntype B destroyed; isotype BR), DR. Congo, Samba, 1891. We select G. Descamps 27 ( Z) as the lectotype because it comprises a whole plant.
