Description

83. Tradescantia rosea Vent., Descr. Pl. Nouv.: tab. 24. 1801.

Ξ Callisia rosea (Vent.) D.R. Hunt

Typus: UNITED STATES : “Caroline et Floride”, Michaux s.n. (holo-: G [G00341445]!; iso-: P [P02173797]!, P-MICH [P00667162]!).

Notes. – A single collection has been located in Ventenat’s herbarium. This collection is wrongly labelled “Beauvois” standing for Ambroise Marie François Joseph Palisot de Beauvois (1752-1820). However, Ventenat in Descriptions (1801: tab. 24) referred to material collected by Michaux “dans la Basse-Caroline et dans la Géorgie ” that was cultivated in Cels’s garden. Two duplicates of the specimen collected in the wild have been found in Paris in P and in P-MICH respectively. Cultivated material kept in MPU (Herb. Thibaud) and P (Herb. Bonpland) labelled as “Hort. Cels” and “Hort. Malmaison” respectively have probably been collected after the validation of the name T. rosea in 1801 and should therefore not be considered as original material.
