Aspidosperma centrale Markgr. in Notizbl. Bot. Gart. Berlin-Dahlem 12(115): 560. 1935.

Holotype:— BRAZIL. Amazonas: Parintins, Lago José-Assú, 16 Sep 1932, A. Ducke s.n. [A. Ducke [24571]] (RB (mounted on two herbarium sheets) [barcode 00535019!, barcode 00535147!]) .

Notes — Pereira et al. (2019) designated a lectotype for A. centrale . However, in the light of the ICN article 8.3, Ex. 9 (Turland et al. 2018), we understand that the gathering “Ducke n. 24571” (Ducke s.n., herbarium RB No. 24571) indicated by Markgraf (1935a) as “Original der Art.” for A. centrale (among the four collections presented in the protologue) is the holotype. It is worth mentioning that we consider the two herbarium sheets with this information in RB (RB barcodes 00535019 and 00535147) as a single specimen mounted on two sheets since they possess a single original label in common, received the same voucher number, and are physically kept together (ICN article 8.3, Ex. 9; Turland et al. 2018).
