Paepalanthus amoenus var. curralensis Silveira, nom. nud.

Silveira (1928) refers to the specimen Silveira 348, which corresponds to Paepalanthus amoenus var. curralensis, from a list of his own collections of Eriocaulaceae. This specimen was found at R and contains a detailed description in Silveira’s handwriting. However, this description has never been published. According to article 32.1 and recommendation 50.1 of the ICBN (McNeill et al. 2006), the name must be treated as nomen nudum.
