Description
Dolichos unguiculatus Linnaeus, Species Plantarum 2: 725. 1753.
"Habitat in Barbados." RCN: 5332.
Neotype (Westphal, Pulses Ethiopia, Taxon. Agric. Signif.: 213. 1974): Westphal 8682 (WAG; iso- K, P).
Current name: Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp. subsp. unguiculata (Fabaceae: Faboideae).
Note: Piper (in Torreya 12: 190. 1912) interpreted this name via material in LINN (evidently sheet 900.5) identifiable as Phaseolus antillanus Urb., for which he substituted P. unguiculatus (L.) Piper. However, as queried by Merrill (in Trans. Amer. Philos. Soc., n.s., 24: 215. 1935), this is unannotated by Linnaeus and is not original material for the name. The absence of type material was noted by authors such as Fawcett & Rendle (Fl. Jamaica 4: 69. 1920), and this uncertainty led some to reject it informally. See review by Westphal who provided a neotype for the name.
