45. Paederia stenobotrya Merr. View in CoL View at ENA

(Rubiaceae) in Lingnan Sci. J. 11(1): 57. 1932. TYPE:— CHINA. Hainan: Hongmao Shan, 26 July 1929, W. T. Tsang & H. Fung 588 (i.e. Lingnan University Herbarium 18122) (holotype: NY 00132402 image!).

The name Paederia stenobotrya Merr. was validly published with a single gathering “ Tsang and Fung 18122 ” in NY cited in the protologue ( Merrill, 1932). However, on the label of the holotype specimen, the collecting number is 588 and the herbarium number is Lingnan University Herbarium 18122. Therefore, the erroneous collecting number in the protologue is to be corrected.
