Remarks

Linnaeus (1768] provided a brief description and cited the locality as America; he seems to have based his taxon on Jacquin’s plate ined. (“Jacq. Spec. 5. p. 1. t. 76” = Jacq., Observ. Bot. t. 76. 1771); Jacquin (1771) in turn referred to: “Linn. Syst. Tom. 3. Pag. 232.” and cited the locality as Cayennae in America.” Later, Linnaeus (Mant. Pl. Altera 430. 1771) provided a detailed description and cited the locality as “Guiania” (= French Guiana), but did not refer to his 1768 or Jacquin’s publication.
