Annotation:
This section was described with three species, cited by reference to their place of publication: Cinchona macrocarpa Vahl, Cinchona acutifolia Ruiz & Pav., and Cinchona magnfolia Ruiz & Pav. Later this section was moved to a genus by Weddell, who included 21 species but did not designate a type. Later Andersson cited the type of this name as Cinchona macrocarpa, and did not use the term lectotype but his citation did satisfy the Code requirements at that time.
