Type: “Hab. in Bharowul regni Cabulici (cl. Griffith pl. exs. Nº 1473)”.

Holotypus: AFGHANISTAN: “Bharowul”, s.d., Griffith 1473 (G-BOIS [G00330468]; iso-: K [K000484297]) (Fig. 27B, p. 119) .

Notes. – Two sheets at K [K000484296, K000484298] have the collector and country but not the locality or collection number, and they may or may not be part of the type collection.

The isotype sheet at K has the collection number 1493 (Fig. 27B, p. 119), whereas that in G-BOIS is 1473. However, labels of both sheets have Griffith’s journal no. 111. Based on our experience with Griffith’s gatherings, different collection numbers were given for one area and often all have the same journal number. BOISSIER (1867a, 1888) never listed Griffith 1473.
