Description
Mimosa circinalis Linnaeus, Species Plantarum 1: 517. 1753.
"Habitat in America calidiore." RCN: 7660.
Lectotype (Barneby & Grimes in Mem. New York Bot. Gard. 74(2): 10. 1997): [icon] " Mimosa spinis ad alas geminis, foliis bipinnatis" in Plumier in Burman, Pl. Amer.: 3, t. 5. 1755.
Current name: Pithecellobium circinale (L.) Benth. (Fabaceae: Mimosoideae).
Note: Barneby & Grimes (May 1997) indicate the original Aubriet tracing (rather than the plate published by Burman) as the type but, confusingly, say it is in Leiden (rather than Groningen). Rico (in Taxon 46: 476. August 1997) independently came to broadly the same conclusion, designating the Burman reproduction of the plate as lectotype. The published image is accepted as the type, but with the choice attributed to Barneby & Grimes.
