刺枝野丁香和穗花野丁香(茜草科)名称之合格发表

Validation of names of Leptodermis pilosa var.acanthoclada and L.pilosa var.spicatiformis (Rubiaceae)

刺枝野丁香Leptodermis pilosa Diels var.acanthoclada Lo和穗花野丁香L.pilosa Diels var.spicatiformis Lo发表时没指明模式,是不合格发表的名称。现通过指定模式,将它们的名称作合格发表。还对此2新变种及其近缘类群提供了分类检索表和地理分布图。

The names of Leptodermis pilosa Diels var. acanthoclada Lo and L. pilosa Diels var. spicatiformis Lo are invalid because no type specimens were indicated in the protologue when they were published. Two names are here validated at the rank of variety, with the specimens designated as types. A key to varieties in Leptodermis pilosa Diels and a distribution map of two new varieties and their relatives are provided.
