4. Pancheria alaternoides Brongn. & Gris

Bulletin de la Société botanique de France 9: 75 (1862) . — Types (as given in protologue): “prope Kanala (Vieillard, no. 598; Deplanche, no. 378). (Specim. masc.)”. — Lectotype (here designated): Montagnes à Kanala, 1855-1860, ♂ fl., Vieillard 598 (P! P00602389 , label for “ Herbier de l’Exposition coloniale”; isolecto-, P! P00602390 , fragm. “A”). — Lectoparatype: Deplanche 378 (P! × 2: (i) P00602392 labelled 378 with 1 fragm. (“B”); (ii) P00602391 fragm. “B”).

REMARKS

Three sheets at P appear to correspond to all the material cited in the protologue, viz. the lectotype, the lectoparatype, and one sheet which is a mixture of both isolectotype and lectoparatype material .

Another sheet at P, labelled “ Vieillard no. 598, Kanala etc, 1861-67”, is excluded from being a type by the date. Furthermore, it is not Pancheria alaternoides but P. cf. reticulata (see discussion of the type of P. lanceolata ). A sheet at BM (Vieillard 598, Kanala, s.dat., ex Herb. Hance no. 17166) has three fragments which match this sheet at P dated 1861-1867.

Although Pancheria alaternoides var. lanceolata was published in 1905, the name P. alaternoides var. alaternoides seems only to have been used in print by Guillaumin et al. (1965).
