Lectotypifications of six taxa in the Boraginales (Cordiaceae and Heliotropiaceae)

Abstract

A large number of specimens used as original material for the description of new species were destroyed in the bombing of the Berlin-Dahlem herbarium, B, in 1943. Six lectotypes are designated here for Cordia discolor Cham., Cordia multispicata Cham., Cordia tobagensis Urb. and its variety broadwayi Urb. in the Cordiaceae and for Tournefortia paniculata Cham. and Tournefortia ulei Vaupel in the Heliotropiaceae.

<strong>A new species of <em>Varronia</em> P. Browne (Cordiaceae) from central Colombia</strong>

“…as supported by molecular studies, Varronia has been reestablished as a distinct genus and included in Cordiaceae, Boraginales (Gottschling et al 2005;Gottschling & Miller 2006;Miller & Gottschling 2007;BWG 2016). After the reestablishment of Varronia, several studies transferred species from Cordia to Varronia and proposed additional taxonomic novelties in Varronia (Miller 2007(Miller , 2012a(Miller , 2013Miller & Wood 2008;Stapf 2010;Feuillet 2012Feuillet , 2016Silva & Melo 2019a).
