“ Aspidosperma oblongifolia ” Pohl, mss. in sched.

Notes —Among the three gatherings mentioned in the protologue of A. nobile by Müller-Argoviensis (1860a), Woodson (1951) selected the collection “St.-Hilaire 760” (St.-Hilaire C1-760) as the type. However, since this gathering has more than one specimen, it was necessary to narrow Woodson’s (1951) typification by electing the best-preserved specimen as the second-step lectotype of A. nobile (P barcode P00639581) (ICN article 9.17; Turland et al. 2018). Also, Müller-Argoviensis (1860a) indicated the gathering Pohl 1229 in the prologue of A. pohlianum but did not cite in which herbarium the type would be deposited. Thus, we selected a material with flower remains from this collection as the lectotype of A. pohlianum (W No. W 0048493) (ICN article 9.3; Turland et al. 2018).
