Nomenclatural Notes

Status: nom. inval. Protologue (in double quotes): Cyclanthera kuntzeana H. Schaef. & S.S. Renner, nom. nov. ≡ Rytidostylis hastata Kuntze, Revis. Gen. Pl. 1: 258. 1891. Note: The epithet hastata is unavailable because of the existence of C. hastata (Kunth) Cogn., Diagn. Cucurb. Nouv. 2: 64. 1877.

Remarks

Schaefer & Renner removed the basionym from R. hastata (Kunth) Kuntze, based their C. hastata on “R. hastata Kuntze (nom.nud.),” and thus inadvertently published their C. hastata as a sp.nov. They, however, did not provide a Latin description/diagnosis and type info.
