Type Information

Type Name
Designated Type: G. lucida Sw.
Chosen By
G.L.Webster J. Arnold Arbor. 48(4): 388. 1967 [14 Oct 1967]

Remarks

Britton & Shafer (N. Amer. Trees 600. 6 May 1908) designated G. elliptica as the type, and their designation has been construed as mechanical and rejected (see ICN Art. 10.5). The ING staff (ING card 31769. Aug 1970) cited G. elliptica as the type, and their publication does not have priority over the Webster publication.
