Ficus chaparensis Berg & Villavicencio (2003: 102)

Lectotype (designated here): — BOLIVIA. Cochabamba, Prov. Chapare, 91 km carretera al Chapare , 15 October 1977, E.Meneces & G.Hartshorn 2036 (lectotype: LPB0000757 !; isolectotypes: BOLV, LPB0000755 !, LPB0000756 !, LPB0000758 !, USZ).

Nomenclatural notes:— The protologue mentions the Meneses & Hartshorn 2036 collection as a type, but does not select which of the three herbaria indicated in the text ( BOLV, LPB and USZ) is the holotype. Berg & Villavicencio (2004) were the first to name the material deposited in the USZ herbarium as type (in the work as “ holotype ”), however, this cannot be considered a lectotypification because it was published after 2001 and the “designated here” or a similar phrase was not used ( Turland et al. 2018, Art. 7.11). As all duplicates in BOLV, LPB, and USZ are syntypes (Art. 8.1 and 9.6), we selected the material LPB0000757 as lectotype because it contains a branch with leaves, stipules and well preserved syconia .
