REMARKS

Guillaumin published the name Pancheria humboldtiana accompanied by a description in Latin and he mentioned two collections, but since his article failed to designate either of the specimens as a type, his name was invalidly published. Sheets at P of both the collections cited by Guillaumin have “ Pancheria humboldtiana Guillaumin, AG ” in Guillaumin’s hand on the labels, and the label of Baumann 15515 also states “type” in his writing. Guillaumin’s name is validated here by reference to his description in 1964 and the designation of Baumann 15515 as the holotype. Baumann 15518 is conspecific .
