Sida schimperiana Hochst. ex A.Rich., Tent. Fl. Abyss. 1: 66. 1847.
Lectotype (first-step designated by Vollesen, 1986; second-step designated here): ABYSSINIA (Ethiopia), 04.06.1837, G.H.W. Schimper 282 (P [P00761807 digital image!]). Fig. 6 View Fig
Notes: While describing Sida schimperiana, Richard (1847) cited collections of G.H.W. Schimper, Richard Quartin-Dillon and Anton Petit in the protologue. Vollesen (1986) inadvertently lectotypified the name (Art. 7.11 of ICN, Turland et al., 2018) by citing Schimper’s collection at P as the type. There are five such relevant specimens at P ( viz., P00761802, P00761804, P00761805, P00761806 and P00761807, of the same gathering Schimper 282) and it cannot be ascertained which particular specimen was designated as lectotype. Thus, we have considered the type citation of Vollesen (1986) as first-step lectotypification and one of the specimens (P00761807) is designated here as the second-step lectotype, which bears fruit and a label indicating the specimen from Schimper’s herbarium.
