Semecarpus forstenii Blume, Mus. Bot. 1(12): 188 (1850). – Type: Moluccas, Ternate,

vii 1841, E. A. Forsten s.n. (lectotype L [ L0015877 ], designated here; isolectotypes L [ L0015878 , L0015879 ]) .

Semecarpus roxburghii Blume, Mus. Bot. 1(12): 188 (1850). – Cassuvium roxburghii (Blume) Kuntze, Revis. Gen. Pl. 1: 152 (1891). – Type: Borneo, Gunong Pamatton, P.W. Korthals s.n. (lectotype L [ L0058821 ], designated here).

Blume’s Semecarpus roxburghii is treated as a synonym of S. forstenii . Both names are here lectotypified to specimens in L.

Serruria roxburghii R.Br., Trans. Linn. Soc. London 10(1): 130 (1810). – Protea roxburghii (R.Br.) Poir. in Lamarck , Encycl. Suppl. 4: 574 (1816). – Type : South Africa, Swartland , Pardberg, W. Roxburgh 53 (lectotype G [ G00014287 ], designated here; possible isolectotype BM [ BM000910766 ]).

Robert Brown clearly based this name on a Roxburgh specimen then in the herbarium of the Linnean Society. This is now in G. But there is a piece mounted on a sheet in BM that may be from this collection, so the G specimen is here designated as lectotype for Brown’s name.

Aeschynomene paludosa Roxb., Fl. Ind. 3: 333 (1832). – Sesbania paludosa (Roxb.) Prain, J. Asiat. Soc. Bengal, Pt 2, Nat. Hist. 66: 82 (1897), nom. illegit., non S. paludosa DC. (1824) . – Sesbania roxburghii Merr., Philipp. J. Sci., C 4: 269 (1909). – Type: W. Roxburgh s.n. (lectotype BR [BR0000005174485], designated here).

Sesbania roxburghii Merr. is a replacement name in Sesbania for Aeschynomene paludosa Roxb. A Roxburgh specimen in BR is designated as lectotype for Roxburgh’s name.
