4. Alpinia maclurei Merr. View in CoL View at ENA

(Zingiberaceae) in Philipp. J. Sci. 21(4): 338. 1922.

TYPE:— CHINA. Hainan: Danzhou, 11 April 1922, F. A. McClure 2518 (i.e. Canton Christian College Herbarium 8963) (syntype: PNH, destroyed, ECON 00135627 About ECON image!) .

The name Alpinia maclurei Merr. was validly published with a gathering “ McClure 8963 ” designated as the type ( Merrill, 1922a). However, on the label of the syntype specimen exists in ECON, the collecting number is 2518 and the herbarium number is Canton Christian College Herbarium 8963. Therefore, the erroneous collecting number in the designation of type is to be corrected.
