摘要
锡金杜鹃(Rhododendron sikkimense Pradhan and Lachungpa)是锡金报道的一种。根据原型,它的模式标本在加州大学和爱丁堡皇家植物园都是不可用的。对文献的仔细研究表明,该物种仅限于锡金。为了便于有效发表,本分类类型被指定为Rhododendron sikkimensis nom11 .(同义:Rhododendron sikkimense Pradhan和Lachungpa),以指定地理位置,Sikkim(第39条,ICBN,东京法典)。讨论并给出了选型方案。
Lectotypification of Rhododendron sikkimensis nom. nov (syn. Rhododendron sikkimense)
Rhododendron sikkimense Pradhan and Lachungpa is one of reported species from Sikkim. As per the protologue, its type specimen is unavailable both in CAL and Royal Botanic Garden, Edinburgh. The scrutiny of literature revealed that the species is restricted to Sikkim. For the valid publication, the lectotype is designated here and proposed as Rhododendron sikkimensis nom. nov. (syn. Rhododendron sikkimense Pradhan and Lachungpa) to specify the geographical location, Sikkim (Article 39, ICBN, Tokyo Code) for taxonomic purposes. The choice of lectotype is discussed and provided.
