Remarks
Baum (in Canad. J. Bot. 45: 1850. 1967) argued that Hitchcock's typification was incorrect, proposing instead that Sloane's cited t. 14, f. 2 (1707) should be the type (with the consequence that A. insularis would fall into the synonymy of A. nutans L. 1753). However the material designated as type was evidently original material for A. insularis, and Hitchcock's choice has priority and is to be adopted, as concluded by later authors such as Veldkamp (in Taxon 33: 95-97. 1984). (vide The Linnaean Plant Name Typification Project).
