The protologue (Gagnepain, 1912) of Bauhinia Received: 11.06.2023; Revised & Accepted: 23.06.2024 Published Online: 30.06.2024	en	S., Bandyopadhyay, Kumar, A.

E36787C9FF9C3C79BAFFF6A4FC34FE28.taxon	description	(perhaps holotype, designated here): BORNEO, Sarawak, path to Matang, 14.12.1894, G. D. Haviland & C. Hose s. n. ‘ 1014 P’ (P [P 00798564 digital image!]). In the protologue of Bauhinia menispermacea Gagnep., Gagnepain (1912) cited a collection from Borneo by Haviland et Hose which can be considered as original material. De Wit (1956) cited the holotype (Haviland et Hose 1014 P) at K. Larsen & Larsen (1996) lectotypified probably the same collection at K and cited the isotype to be at P. However, we could not be able to locate the lectotype specimen at K. Nevertheless, we could locate another collection (Haviland 1014, K 000760977) from Borneo and it bears a collection date of ‘ Feb. 5 / 92 ’ signifying Feb 5 th 1892 which differs from the collection date stated in the protologue, i. e. Dec 14 th 1894. Moreover, none of the handwritings in pen or pencil on K 000760977 is that of F. Gagnepain. Thus, it cannot even be an uncited original material. Furthermore, the specimen K 000760977 bears the number 1014 proceeded by the abbreviation “ e. c. e. a ”, rather than 1014 P. The abbreviation “ e. c. e. a ” refers date of collection of Haviland’s collections which was well illustrated by Stapf (1907). The number 1014 is the serial number against Bauhinia in the handwritten manuscript entitled ‘ List of plants coll. by Dr. G. D. Haviland, Borneo’ (Haviland, 1892). According to Stafleu & Cowan (1976), the herbarium and type specimens of F. Gagnepain are housed at P. We could able to locate a pertinent specimen from Borneo by Haviland et Hose 1014 P (P 00798564). It also has an illustrative rendering of floral components by Gagnepain on a separate piece of paper. It also agrees with specimen details cited in the protologue. Furthermore, it would be pertinent to say that Larsen & Larsen (1996) cited the P specimen as a duplicate of the K specimen: Haviland et Hose 1014 P. This cannot be proved or disproved as Haviland et Hose 1014 P could not be located at K.	en	S., Bandyopadhyay, Kumar, A.
