Boehmeria caudata (Burm.f.) J.J.Sm. var. pendula J.J.Sm. (1910) 708. ― Type: Koorders s.n. (holo BO, not traced), Indonesia, Jawa [ Java], “Res. Besoeki”. ― Judged from the description this is probably a synonym of B. virgata , but further identification is not possible without original material.

Boehmeria diffusa Wedd. var. canescens Wedd. (1856) 357. ― Type not indicated or traced. ― Identification is not possible without original material.

Boehmeria diffusa Wedd. var. hirta Wedd. (1856) 356. ― Type: not indicated or traced. ― Identification is not possible without original material.

Boehmeria diffusa Wedd. var. strigosa Wedd. (1856) 357. ― Type not indicated or traced. ― Identification is not possible without original material.

Boehmeria greviaefolia C. Presl (1845) 540. ― Type: Hilsenberg s.n. (not traced), Mauritius. ― The name was proposed for a plant originally named B. caudata Sieber View in CoL , presumably an unpublished manuscript name. Boehmeria greviaefolia would appear to be identifiable with B. virgata subsp. macrophylla var. macrostachya View in CoL , but certain identification is not possible without original material. Weddell (1869: 215) renders the name B. grewiaefolia .

Boehmeria jacquiniana Blume (1857) View in CoL 219. ― Type: Jacquin s.n. (holo W). ― Specimen bearing the ms name Urtica interrupta Jacq. View in CoL , material only allows a very tentative identification as B. japonica var. tenera View in CoL .

Boehmeria rubrinervia Hassk. (1844) View in CoL 79. ― Type: Unknown collector [Blume] s.n. (n.v.), Indonesia, Jawa [ Java], Salak. ― From description probably = Nothocnide repanda View in CoL , but certain identification is not possible without original material.

Boehmeria rupestris C.B.Rob. (1911) 5. ― Type: Ramos B.S. 5542 (not traced), Philippines, Luzon, Benguet, R. Trinidad. ― From description probably = B. pilosiuscula , but certain identification is not possible without original material.

Boehmeria scabra (Blume) Hassk. (1844) View in CoL 79. ― Urtica scabra Blume (1825) View in CoL 504. ― Type: Unknown collector (not traced), Indonesia, Jawa [ Java], “circa Batavia, in ruderatis.” ― Identification is not possible without original material.

Boehmeria scabrella Gaudich. ex Miq. (1859) View in CoL 252, nom. illeg. superfl. ― Type not traced. ― Miquel cites in synonymy a range of earlier published names relating to either B. virgata subsp. macrophylla var. scabrella View in CoL or B. ourantha View in CoL , as follows: Urtica caudata Burm.f. View in CoL , Boehmeria ourantha Miq. View in CoL , Urtica scabrella Roxb. View in CoL , Urtica uragera Steud.

Boehmeria spiciflora Blume (1857) 217. ― Type: Herb. Jacquin f. s.n. (holo W; iso L), eastern India. ― Probably B. virgata var. macrostachya View in CoL , but specimen too fragmentary for certain identification.
