Remarks
Some treat R. falcatus var. orthoceras as a comb. nov. (based on Ceratocephala orthoceras DC. 1817) and cite the authorship as (DC.) Aitchison & Hemsley (cf., H. Reid & Y. J. Nasir, Fl. Pak. 193: 156. 1991). Aitchison did not directly or indirectly refer to C. orthoceras DC. or ascribe R. falcatus var. orthoceras to Aitchison & Hemsley.
