Nomenclatural notes.

Jasminum harmandianum was described ( Gagnepain 1933a, b) on the basis of three gatherings collected (Massie s.n., C. Thorel s.n., F.J. Harmand 633) from Laos, Cambodia ( Expédition du Mékong, Bassac) and Vietnam. We found all these elements deposited in P and A, some of them with two duplicates. A survey of literature and virtual herbaria revealed that earlier workers ( Green 2000; Ho 2000; Tran 2003) had not designated a lectotype for this species. The specimen P00644289 at P collected by Massie represents species best and has a complete original label. Therefore, it was selected as a lectotype for J. harmandianum following Art. 7.11 of ICN ( Turland et al. 2018). However, we found a duplicate of the same at A having barcode A00063064 which was distributed from P, as evident from its label. It is designated here as an isolectotype.

Ecology and phenology.

Grows in the forest at 100-1000 m.a.s.l. Flowering in June - July, fruiting in August - September.

Distribution.

Cambodia, Laos, Thailand and Vietnam. Dak Lak (Dak Mil), Kon Tum (Chu Mon Ray National Park), and An Giang (Nui Cam) Provinces.
