Remarks

Lour. (1790) cited the epithet as “eburina”; at the end of the species description, he used the descriptive term “eburinis”; however, he (in Fl. Cochinch., ed. 2. 2: 767. 1793) corrected “eburinis” to “eburneis” and the epithet “eburina” to eburnea. His corrections are treated here as orthographical.
