03AD87F01E272E44FFB1FD9CFAF7D7E2.taxon	discussion	The protologue of Carex curticeps cited the collection of Clarke from Sikkim Himalaya. Two relevant collections of C. B. Clarke are available at K. The two specimens of barcode [K 000794670] [K 000794671] are closest to the description of Clarke.	en	Jana, Bikash, Srivastava, Ramesh C. (2014): Lectotypification of six species of Kobresia Willd.

03AD87F01E272E44FC8DFE1CFBEBD11C.taxon	discussion	The protologue of K. duthiei cited the following collections “ KUMAON, alt. 11 - 16000 ft., Duthie (nn. 3461, 6093, 6094) and Gurhwal, Duthie (n. 5016) ”. We have examined the images of relevant specimens at K (J. F. Duthie 3461, J. F. Duthie 5016, J. F. Duthie 6093, J. F. Duthie 6094) and the specimens at CAL (J. F. Duthie 6093, J. F. Duthie 3461), DD (J. F. Duthie 3461, J. F. Duthie 5016, J. F. Duthie 6093, J. F. Duthie 6094) and MCIH (J. F. Duthie 6093). CAL specimens consist of two plantsinsamesheet and CAL [0000001899] has been designated here as a lectotype.	en	Jana, Bikash, Srivastava, Ramesh C.

03AD87F01E242E47FF44FEA3FBF2D7C2.taxon	materials_examined	Lectotypus (designated here): Western Nepal, Nampa Gadh, 3700 - 4000 m, 25. VII. 1886, J. F. Duthie 6092 (K [K 000794669]!, arrow, photo; iso-: DD!) (Fig. 3).	en	Jana, Bikash, Srivastava, Ramesh C. (2014): Lectotypification of six species of Kobresia Willd. (Cyperaceae).

03AD87F01E242E47FF44FEA3FBF2D7C2.taxon	discussion	The protologue of K. fissiglumis cited the collection of J. F. Duthie 6092 from Western Nepal. We have examined image of the relevant collection at K [K 000794669] and the specimens at CAL and DD. The sheet at K has two plant specimens with the same field data in two different labels and both of them are from female plant with a determinative slip of C. B. Clarke in his own handwriting. There are four herbarium sheets of Duthie 6092 at DD, one of them is a male plant and three others of female plants but the label data of all these specimens are written by pen and it has now became invisible due to the ageing. There is a herbarium specimen of a male plant at CAL collected from Kumaun, Palang Gadh Byans, Western Nepal. Duthie’s collection at BM with the same field number i. e. Duthie 6092 collected from Kumaun, Palang Gadh, Byans, 11000 - 12000 ft. has been annotated as “ Hemicarex trinervis Benth. & Hook. f. forma? Spicisnigrescentibus ”. According to RAJBHANDARI & OHBA (1991), it is Kobresia trinervis Boeck. Kobresia fissiglumis has been described on the base of the female plant deposited at K also the male plant of Duthie’s specimen is cited bearing the same collection number at K. The characters of the female spikelet are most important in identifying the different species of Kobresia and hence a female specimen at K is being designated here as the lectotype.	en	Jana, Bikash, Srivastava, Ramesh C.

03AD87F01E242E47FCBEFE7CFBCED07C.taxon	discussion	The protologue of K. nitens cited the specimens as follows: “ Kashmir borealis, alt. 3500 - 4000 m. (C. B. Clarke, nn. 29697, 29840) ”. Wehave examined the image of these specimens at K and forlectotypification.	en	Jana, Bikash, Srivastava, Ramesh C. (2014): Lectotypification of six species of Kobresia Willd. (Cyperaceae).

03AD87F01E242E46FCBEF986FF42D067.taxon	discussion	The protologue of Hemicarex pygmaea cited the following collections: “ Elyna sp. n. 7, Herb. Ind. Or., Hook f. et T. Thoms.; KUNAWUR: Jacquemont, n. 1783; LADAK: in jugo Lanak (T. Thomson); SIKKIM: prope Momay et Kongra Lama, alt. 4,400 metr. (J. D. Hooker) ”. We examined the images of the relevant specimens deposited at K (Jacquemont 1783, J. D. Hooker s. n., Thomson s. n.), BM (J. D. Hooker s. n.), P (J. D. Hooker s. n.) and the specimen at CAL (J. D. Hooker s. n.). There are four herbarium sheets J. D. Hooker’s collection at CAL [0000001900], identified by C. B. Clarke in May 1884 as Hemicarex pygmaea C. B. Clarke.	en	Jana, Bikash, Srivastava, Ramesh C. (2014): Lectotypification of six species of Kobresia Willd. (Cyperaceae). Candollea 69 (2): 109-113, DOI: 10.15553/c2014v692a1

03AD87F01E252E46FF5BF99DFAA9D02F.taxon	discussion	The protologue of Carex uncinoides cited the specimens as follows: “ In Himalaya orientali temperata, ad Sikkim, alt. 10 - 15,000 ped., J. D. Hooker ” and also provided an illustration. Wehave examined the images of the relevant specimens at K (J. D. Hooker s. n.) and a specimen at CAL (J. D. Hooker s. n.). One of the sheets at K has five collections of J. D. Hooker collected mostlyfrom Lachen inNorthEast Sikkim withfive labels. Authors have examined the specimen at CAL that bears a determinative slip of C. B. Clarke in his own handwriting (mentioned as “ Carex uncinoides Boott ”). One earlier worker Neelam Ghildyal has also put determinative slip as a type of Kobresia uncinioides, without mentioning any type status. This herbarium sheet consists of 3 plant parts; one of them (nearest todeterminateslip) isdesignated as alectotype, one is incomplete and one is a dwarf specimen.	en	Jana, Bikash, Srivastava, Ramesh C.
