Hibiscus hispidissimus Griff., Not. Pl. Asiat. View in CoL 4: 521 (1854). – Type: India, Kerala,

Thanneerpandal, near town of Badagara, A. K. Pradeep 5008 (neotype K [n.v.], designated by Pradeep & Sivarajan, Taxon 40: 637 [1991]; isoneotype CALI) .

Hibiscus furcatus Roxb. ex DC., Prodr. 1: 449 (1824), nom. illegit., non H. furcatus Willd. (1809) . – Furcaria roxburghii Kostel., Allg. Med. -Pharm. Fl. 5: 1856 (1836). – Type: India, Bengal, 1821, Leschenault de la Tour s.n. (lectotype G-DC [IDC800 LM-197/9], designated here).

Kosteletzky renamed Candolle’s later homonym Furcaria roxburghii . The transfer of this name to Hibiscus is blocked by Hibiscus roxburghii Steud. Wilson (1999) considered Roxburgh’s drawing of Hibiscus furcatus in K as the holotype of the name. It seems very unlikely that de Candolle saw this drawing, but he does indicate that he saw a specimen. There is a specimen in G-DC collected by Leschenault de la Tour in Bengal in 1821. This is here designated as lectotype to supersede Wilson’s typification.

Horsfieldia spicata (Roxb.) J.Sinclair, Gard. Bull. View in CoL Singapore 28: 112 (1975). – Myristica spicata Roxb., Fl. Ind. View in CoL 3: 847 (1832). – Type: cult in Hortus Botanicus Calcuttensis (n.v.)

Horsfieldia roxburghii Warb. View in CoL , Nova Acta Acad. Caes. Leop.-Carol. German. Nat. Cur. 68: 277 (1897). – Type: Culta in hortus Bog. (lectotype P [n.v.], designated by de Wilde, Gard. Bull. Singapore 38: 59 [1985]; isolectotypes B, FI).

Roxburgh described Myristica spicata based on a flowering female tree in the Calcutta Botanic Garden. No herbarium material or drawing of this tree has been located.

Hunteria zeylanica (Retz.) Gardner ex Thwaites, Enum. Pl. Zeyl. 191 (1860). – Cameraria zeylanica Retz., Observ. Bot. View in CoL 4: 24 (1786). – Type: J.G. Koenig s.n. (lectotype LD [ LD1754349 ], designated by Huber, Rev. Handb. Fl. Ceylon 1(1): 10 [1973]); possible isolectotypes BM, MO ).

Hunteria roxburghiana Wight, Icon. Pl. Ind. Orient. View in CoL 4: 2, t. 1294 (1848). – Hunteria corymbosa var. roxburghiana (Wight) Trimen ex Gamble, Fl. Madras View in CoL 2: 808 (1923). – Type: India, R. Wight s.n. [Peninsula Indiae Orientalis No. 1874 View in CoL ] (lectotype G [G00169483], designated by Omino, Wageningen Agric. Univ. Pap. 96-1: 123 [1996]; possible isolectotypes L [×2], K [×2]).

Noltie (2005) gives details of likely original material for Hunteria roxburghiana View in CoL in E; Omino’s lectotypification rests on the assumption that the specimen in G distributed from Kew represents duplicate material of this.

Hydrilla verticillata View in CoL (L.f.) Royle, Ill. Bot. Nat. Hist. Himal. 1: 376 (1839). – Serpicula verticillata L.f., Suppl. Pl. 416 (1781). – Type: Anon. s.n. (lectotype LINN [ LINN-HL 1106.1 ], designated by Cook & Lüönd, Aquatic Bot. 13: 486 [1982]) .

Hydrilla roxburghii Steud., Nomencl. Bot. View in CoL , ed. 2, 1: 780 (1840). – Type [published illustration] ‘ Serpicula verticillata’, Roxburgh, Pl. Coromandel 2: t. 164 (1802) (lectotype designated here).

Steudel based Hydrilla roxburghii on Roxburgh’s description of Serpicula verticillata . Roxburgh’s published plate is here selected as lectotype of Steudel’s name.
