10. Morinda hypotephra F.Muell.

Victorian Naturalist 6: 55 (July 1889) = Palmeria hypotephra (F.Muell.) Domin (Monimiaceae) , Repertorium Specierum Novarum Regni Vegetabilis 12: 390 (1913).

REMARKS

The name Morinda hypotephra F.Muell. was misapplied in the past (up to 1997) to the species that we refer to an undescribed Morinda sp. 1 in Razafimandimbison et al. (2009) and was recently described by Halford & Ford (2009) as Morinda retropila Halford & A.J.Ford (see Appendix 1). The type of the name Morinda hypotephra F.Muell. is actually a species of Palmeria , P. hypotephra (F.Muell.) Domin , of the family Monimiaceae and this synonymy was confirmed by Whiffin & Foreman (2007).
