Nellica liebmanniana (Müll.Arg.) R.W. Bouman, Phytotaxa 540(1):13. 2022. BASIONYM: Phyllanthus leibmannianus Müll.Arg. in D.C., Prodr. 15(2.2):366. 1866. TYPE: MEXICO. [Veracruz]: “La Isleta op. Vera Cruz,” Apr 1841, F.M. Liebmann 5689 (lectotype, designated here: C C10023814 ,photograph!). REMAINING SYNTYPES: MEXICO.[Veracruz]: Potrero de Consoquitla, Aug 1841, F.M. Liebmann 5690 (C C10023816 , photograph!); Mirador, Aug 1841, F.M. Liebmann 5691 (C C10023812 , photograph!, C10023813 , photograph!); Potrero de Consoquitla , Aug 1841, F.M. Liebmann 5703 (C C10023815 ,photograph!).

In his original description of Phyllanthus liebmannianus, Müller cited no specific specimens but wrote that the material he saw was collected by Liebmann and in the Copenhagen herbarium; he also listed the three localities associated with the type material cited above. There are four gatherings comprising five specimens at C that meet these criteria. Four of these consist of loose branches, whereas the fifth is a whole plant; which we designate as the lectotype. There is also a specimen at G-DC ( G00325383 , internet image!) collected by Leibmann at Consoquitla in August 1841, but it has no number, and therefore it is not clear to which of the remaining syntypes it corresponds .
