Asiat. Soc. Bengal, Pt.	<div><p>Garcinia jelinekii Kurz, J. Asiat. Soc. Bengal, Pt. 2, No. III, Nat. Hist. 45(2): 118. 1876. Lectotype (perhaps holotype, designated here): INDIA, Andaman Islands, Tillangchong, [Expedition] Novara 169, [23.02.1858], A. Jelinek 106 (W [W-0073375!]). Fig. 1</p><p>Notes: The Novara Expedition was on the Nicobar Islands between 23 February and 26 March 1858 (Scherzer, 1862). Collections made during this expedition, particularly by Anton Jelinek, are housed at W (Stafleu &amp; Cowan, 1979; JACQ, 2024) . Since the labels are printed with the wording for the Novara Expedition as in the extent material in Vienna, the specimens were likely prepared in W and substantially distributed to other herbaria (H. Rainer, pers. comm.). However, duplicates of specimens collected by Jelinek on this expedition are rare or non-existent. Among these, only one specimen, Elatostema novarae Kurz, is currently available at CAL (CAL0000014628). Curiously this specimen is not available in W , since Urticaceae collection burned during the WWII.</p><p>During an investigation at CAL, the specimen CAL 47010, cited by Maheshwari (1964) as the type of Garcinia jelinekii, was examined. However, this specimen (CAL0000047010) was identified as Impatiens bicolor Royle ( Balsamiaceae), collected by S.A. Hariss. The protologue of G. jelinekii describes only the vegetative part and fruits, which agreeing with the collection housed at W, which is here lectotypified, but as a possible holotype, following McNeill (2014) recommendations.</p><p>Mohanan et al. (2023) erroneously attributed the lectotype designation for Garcinia jelinekii to Marinho (2017). However, Marinho (2017) did not effectively designate a lectotype but merely listed type specimens of Garcinia housed at W. His work did not fulfill the requirements for lectotypification, as he did not use the phrase</p><p>“ designated here” or a similar expression, as required for lectotype designation after 1 January 2001 (Art. 7.11 of the ICN, Turland et al., 2018) .</p><p>Jones (1980) did not assign Garcinia jelinekii to any of the seven sections for the Indomalayan region, likely due to the absence of flowers in the type material. Gaudeul et al. (2024) considered it as an unplaced name. Further investigations into the morphological characteristics of G. jelinekii are essential for its taxonomic placement. A key question remains: if no specimens of G. jelinekii are held at CAL, how did Kurz access the material?</p><p>two possibilities arise: 1) the specimens were deposited at W long after the expedition, or at least after 1876, the year G. jelinekii was described; or</p><p>2) Kurz visited W between 1858 and 1876 and described the species based on material housed there.</p><p>These questions remain unresolved and also warrant further inquiry.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03FD87A0411FAD06FF6BE5196EC1FD81	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
