Description
Corchorus capsularis Linnaeus, Species Plantarum 1: 529. 1753.
"Habitat in India." RCN: 3933.
Lectotype (Robyns & Meijer in Dassanayake & Fosberg, Revised Handb. Fl. Ceylon 7: 420. 1991): Herb. Hermann 5: 261, No. 214 [icon] (BM).
Current name: Corchorus capsularis L. (Tiliaceae).
Note: Ghafoor (in Nasir & Ali, Fl. W. Pakistan 75: 29. 1974) indicated 691.3 (LINN) as the type but this collection lacks the relevant Species Plantarum number (i.e. “3”) and was a post-1753 addition to the herbarium, and is not original material for the name.
