Description
64. Xerospermum topengii Merr.
(Sapindaceae) in Philipp.J. Sci. 23(3): 250. 1923. TYPE:— CHINA. Hainan: Wuzhishan, Wuzhi Shan, 5 May 1922, F. A. McClure 2901 (i.e. Canton Christian College Herbarium 9455) (syntype: PNH, destroyed, A 00051012 image!, A 00051013 image!, ECON 00249540 image!).
McClure 9455 was the only gathering cited in the protologue of the name Xerospermum topengii Merr. (Merrill, 1923). However, the collecting number on the labels of the syntype specimens is 2901, while the herbarium number is Canton Christian College Herbarium 9455. Thus, the collecting number cited in the protologue is to be corrected.
