REMARKS

According to McNeill et al. (2006: Art. 60, Ex. 15) the spelling of the epithet must be corrected from “ billardieri ” to “ billardierei ”.

David Don published the name Callicoma billardierei with the name “ Codia montana Labill. MSS ” as a nomen nudum in synonymy under it, and he cited a specimen in Herb. Lambert. According to Miller (1970), Lambert’s herbarium was dispersed after his death and some of Labillarière’s specimens from the south Pacific were bought by Robert Brown on behalf of the British Museum. A Labillardière specimen at BM ( Fig. 2D) consists of one remounted fragment with three small labels, also remounted, indicating “ Callicoma billardieri D.Don ” (in David Don’s hand), “ Codia montana ” (in Labillardière’s hand) and “Labillardière” (writer unknown). Labillardière’s writing was identified by comparison with samples in Burdet’s Auxilium ad botanicorum graphicem ( Burdet 1976 and http://www.ville-ge.ch/ musinfo/bd/cjb/auxilium/, consulted 23 February 2007) and David Don’s by comparison with manuscripts at The Linnean Society of London, where he was librarian ( Stafleu & Cowan 1976: 668). Thus although nothing is written on the sheet at BM to indicate that it came from Lambert’s herbarium, the taxon name in David Don’s hand confirms that this specimen is the holotype. All the possible isotypes have simple leaves and old female flowers (see Appendix 1).

Pancheria billardierei View in CoL is one of the most common and widespread species in the genus. Until now, many specimens have been identified as P. vieillardii View in CoL , but the epithet billardierei View in CoL has priority. Guillaumin’s account of Pancheria View in CoL ( Guillaumin 1941, 1948) included the names of a number of taxa that scarcely differed from one another, including P. elliptica View in CoL , P. obovata View in CoL , P. pulchella View in CoL and P. pyrifolia View in CoL , and these are also now put into the synonymy of P. billardierei View in CoL .
