03A2D45A045BFFBEFCABB8B59F50F9A0.taxon	discussion	REMARKS Various author citations are encountered for the name Blumea floresiana. Some of them are ‘ (Sch. Bip. ex. Miq.) Boerl. ex Koord. ’, ‘ (Sch. Bip. ex. Miq.) Koord. ’, ‘ (Sch. - Bip.) Boerl’., ‘ Sch. Bip. ’, ‘ Boerlage’ and ‘ (Sch. - Bip.) Boerl’. In two important revisionary studies of Blumea by Randeria (1960) and Pornpongrungrueng et al. (2016), the author citation followed is ‘ (Sch. - Bip.) Boerl’. Boerlage (1891) created a combination using the name Conyza floresiana Sch. - Bip. (in Zollinger 1854). But the name Conyza floresiana is invalid. Schulz-Bipontinus listed 25 Conyza species, among them C. floresiana (no. 16), C. celebica (no. 23) and C. monocephala (no. 24), for which a single descriptive character is provided: “ Fl. lutei ” – i. e. yellow flowers – not serving as a diagnostic character and so these names were not valid. Miquel (1856) validated Conyza floresiana Sch. - Bip. by providing a description. Hence, the correct author citation for the name Blumea floresiana is definitely ‘ (Sch. Bip. ex Miq.) Boerlage’. The name Conyza floresiana Sch. - Bip. first appeared in a publication ofZollinger (1854). Zollinger stated that the determination of Compositae in his work was carried out by Schultz-Bipontinus. In protologue herbarium number of Zollinger 3329 is mentioned, while no specific herbarium is mentioned. We traced four sheets of Zollinger 3329 from P, one each from L, M and U. Schultz-Bipontinus cited the locality as “ Ad rupes pr. Barie L. ins. Flores VI ”. Zollinger detailed the locality as “ Eiland flores, op rotsen aan de kust bij bari ”, meaning: “ Island of Flores, on rocks on the coast near Bari ”. Most of the herbarium sheets of Zollinger used by F. A. W. Miquel for his Flora van Nederlandsch Indië is at P. So we designate the sheet with barcodeP 00692057 as the lectotype of the name Blumea floresiana.	en	Dilsha, Muthalaveettil, Satheesh, George (2023): Lectotypification of three names in the genus Blumea DC.

03A2D45A045BFFBEFED2BC5A9958F823.taxon	discussion	REMARKS De Candolle (1836) created a new combination using the name Gnaphalium solidaginoides Poir. In protologue, Poiret mentioned that he saw the specimen (or specimens) in Desfontaines’s herbarium (vs herb. desfont.). It is not clear whether Poiret saw a single specimen or more than one specimen at Desfontaine’s herbarium. Poiret (1812) also stated that the species was collected from Antilles (“ cette plante croît aux Antilles ”. We found three sheets of Poiret’s Gnaphalium solidaginoides specimen from FI, GDC and P. No herbarium or a specific sheet is mentioned in the protologue. These sheets are syntypes according to article 9.6 of Shenzhen code. Hence all the three sheets qualified to be original material. The general herbarium of Desfontaines was acquired by Webb and is now at FI (Stafleu & Cowan 1976), so we chose FI sheet (FI 006309) as the lectotype for the name Blumea solidaginoides.	en	Dilsha, Muthalaveettil, Satheesh, George (2023): Lectotypification of three names in the genus Blumea DC.

03A2D45A045BFFBAFC4FBEDA9958FA61.taxon	discussion	REMARKS Richard (1847) provided a description for the name Blumea dregeanoides and thereby validated it. In that publication he gave a reference to Blumea dregeanoides C. H. Schultz in pl. Schimp. Abyss., sect. II, 633 et 1297. The reference goes to a printed herbarium label of a series of exsiccata distributed on the occasion of “ Schimperi Iter Abyssinicum ” (section secunda): prope Aguar (Abyssinia: Ethiopia), 8 April 1839. This series was distributed to numerous herbaria. After a thorough searching in different herbaria around the world, we found 24 sheets; BR (2), HEID (1), P (5), M (1), S (2), MO (1), TUB (4), US (2), W (1), CAL (2). In most of these herbarium sheets printed label contains an abbreviation ‘ u. i. 1842 ’. The ‘ u. i. ’ refers to “ Unio Itineraria ”, also known as the “ Botanische Reiseverein ”, which was a 19 th- century joint stock corporation, formed solely to send botanists on expeditions to gather herbarium specimens. Schimper, Georg Wilhelm (1804?, Mannheim- 1878, Adoa, Abyssinia) was the Reiseverein's most important, most expensive, and, aside from Welwitsch, most difficult wanderer (Wörz 2007). In protologue, Richard also added that the species is very polymorphic, some samples likely annuals are only one to two inches tall, while others are perennials with stems sometimes reaching two feet or more. In all the 24 retrieved sheets the different forms are recognized. Richard mentioned four localities in protologue; Chire (Quartin-Dillon), Choa and Techeleukote (Antoine Petit), Wogera (Schimper 1297) and near Ferrokoba (Schimper 633). As all the found 24 sheets of B. dregeanoides are syntypes after Art. 9.6 of Shenzhen Code, lectotypification was necessary according to Art. 9.3. After dissolution of Unio itineraria most of the collections of Schimper went directly to P. The sheet P 033041 is well preserved and thus chosen as the lectotype of the name Blumea dregeanoides.	en	Dilsha, Muthalaveettil, Satheesh, George (2023): Lectotypification of three names in the genus Blumea DC.
