70. Oenanthe capensis Houtt.,

Nat. Hist. II(8): Aanwyz. Plaat. [1], 140, tab. 45, fig. 2. 1777.

Lectotypus (designated here by Veldkamp): SOUTH AFRICA: Auge s.n. [?] (G-PREL [G00818059]!).

= Bubon proliferum Burm. f., Fl. Ind. (Prodr. Fl. Cap.): 7. 1768. ≡ Glia prolifera (Burm. f.) B.L. Burtt in Edinburgh J. Bot. 48: 208. 1991.

Lectotypus (designated here by Callmander): SOUTH AFRICA: Cape, Garcin 100 (G-PREL [G00818060]!).

Notes. – Original material of Oenanthe capensis probably collected by Auge is in the Cape herbarium in G-PREL. It is designated here as the lectotype.

Bubon proliferum was based on a Garcin collection in the Burman herbarium, which is designated here as the lectotype. Laurent Garcin (1683-1752), a VOC ship’s surgeon originating from Nyon, a town not far from Geneva, provided collections to Burman, which were then used by his son for his Flora Indica and Prodromus Florae Capensis (BURMAN f., 1768) (see WIJNANDS, 1992; COOK, 2016).
