Dictyophyllaria dietschiana (Edwall) Garay (Garay 1986: 231)

Type.

BRAZIL – São Paulo • Serra do Mar; 1903; A. Dietsch 6070; holotype: SP! [SP 000109] .

Notes.

The paper in which Edwall (1903) published this species explicitly states that he collected this material for the herbarium of the Comissão Geographica e Geologica de São Paulo. A single specimen determined by Edwall as his V. dietschiana bears a label of the Comissão and is congruent with the protologue. We find this sufficient to unambiguously determine it as the holotype.
