Solanum maestrense Urb. 2009, Spec. Nov.

Description

Solanum maestrense Urb., Repert. Spec. Nov. Regni Veg. 21: 221. 1925

Type: Cuba. Oriente: Sierra Maestra, on the water divide between Rio Yara and Río Palmamocha, at the foot of Loma Joaquim, on the slope towards Rio Palmamocha, 19 Jul 1922, E. Ekman 14456 (lectotype, S [S04-2941], designated here; isolectotype, S [S04- 2942]).

Distribution. Endemic to Cuba, known only from the type.

Representative specimen. Cuba, Oriente, Ekman 14456 (S).

It is clear from the protologue that Urban did not have at his disposal a specimen with a flower (“flores non vidi”, Urban, 1925), and that he was describing this species from material in B that is no longer extant. The two rather scrappy sheets at S are both annotated “type”, but only one (S04-2941) has reproductive parts (one flower and two fruits in the packet). This sheet (Fig. 3c) is chosen here as the lectotype.
