26. Gomphandra hainanensis Merr.

(Icacinaceae) in Philipp. J. Sci. 21(4): 348. 1922.

TYPE:— CHINA. Hainan: Wuzhishan, Five Finger Mt (i.e. Wuzhi Shan ), alt. 700 m, 20 December 1921, F. A. McClure 2114 (i.e. Canton Christian College Herbarium 8546) (syntype: PNH, destroyed, A 00050316 image!, A 00050317 image!) .

The name Gomphandra hainanensis Merr. was validly published with a single gathering “ McClure 8546 ” cited in the protologue ( Merrill, 1922a). However, on the label of the syntype specimen ( A 00050317 ), the collecting number is 2114 and the herbarium number is Canton Christian College Herbarium 8546. Therefore, the erroneous collecting number in the protologue is to be corrected.
