Urochloa chusqueoides (Hack.) Rudov View in CoL in Rudov et al.(2020) 30. — Panicum chusqueoides Hack.(1895) View in CoL 377. — Brachiaria chusqueoides (Hack.) Clayton (1980) View in CoL 558. — Lectotype (designated here): Rehmann 8648 (lecto W [W19160024803]; isolecto K [K000281964]), South Africa,Durban, 8 June 1848.

Distribution — Native to eastern Africa, from Ethiopia to

South Africa, also in Yemen.

Nomenclatural notes — Although the collection Rehmann 8648 has often been mentioned as the type of the basionym, or the duplicate at K indicated as the isotype, as far as we know the holotype has never been indicated. Here, we explicitly choose the specimen at W, where the author of the basionym, Ernst Hackel, worked, as the lectotype.
