Linn. Soc. London	<div><p>Medinilla himalayana Hook.f. ex Triana, Trans. Linn. Soc. London 28(1): 88. 1871 [1872]. Lectotype (designated here): INDIA, In the eastern Himalayas, Sikkim, 3000-6000 ft., J. D. Hooker s.n. (K [K000867099 digital image!]); isolecto (G [G006402 digital image!]; K [K000867098; K000867100 digital images!]).</p><p>The name M. himalayana was established by Triana in 1871 based on the specimens of Sir J.D. Hooker collected from Sikkim and Hooker and Thomson from Khasi Mountain. However, we have been unable to locate any specimens of Hooker and Thomson from Khasi Mountains. A search at various herbaria related to Hooker and Triana revealed four specimens collected by Hooker from Sikkim (G006402, K000867098; K000867099; K000867100 digital images). However, we have been unable to locate any specimens deposited at COL. Among them, the sheet K000867099 has the original annotation of Hooker. This specimen is complete and agrees well with the details provided in the protologue. Hence, it is designated here as the lectotype of M. himalayana .</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03F587A5FFE9B4339E69A660FD8BB920	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
