Type Specimens

• ST: Cyrus G. Pringle - 8301 - MO - (BC:MO-485874/A:2517834). (MO - (BC:MO-485874/A:2517834))
• ST: C. A. Purpus - 126 - UC - (/A:126836). (UC - (/A:126836)) Johnston (1961) is credited with a first-step lectotypification, as he cites Purpus 126 as the type collection. In his discussion he indicates the UC sheet as type, but then says it is a mixed collection and does not indicate specifically where on sheet this collection is located, so this may not be considered correctable to LT.
