1. Camelliastrum Nakai, J. Jap. Bot. 16: 699. (1940)
Type
( “lectotype”, Art. 10 Note 1 of the ICN; designated here): Camelliastrum caudatum (Wall.) Nakai.
Nomenclatural notes.
Nakai (1940) established the genus Camelliastrum to categorize six species in China and Japan, including Camelliastrum assimile (Champ. ex Benth.) Nakai, Camelliastrum buisanense (Sasaki) Nakai, Camelliastrum caudatum , Camelliastrum gracile (Hemsl.) Nakai, Camelliastrum mairei (H. Lév.) Nakai and Camelliastrum salicifolium (Champ.) Nakai, but did not designate a type. Based on the description in the protologue, Camelliastrum caudatum is selected as the type of the genus. The basionym of Camelliastrum caudatum , Camellia caudata Wall., was lectotypified by Zhao et al. (2017b: 172) as the specimen H. Bruce s.n. in Wallich 978 (right-hand specimen of K001110475. An image is available at http://www.kew.org/herbcatimg/680707.jpg). Therefore, this specimen becomes the type of Camelliastrum (Art. 10.1 of the ICN).
