Lectotype (Knapp & Jarvis in Bot. J. Linn. Soc. 104: 344, f. 13. 1990): [icon] " Solanum Barbadense spinosum, foliis villosis, fructu aureo rotundiore, Pyri parvi inversi forma et magnitudine" in Plukenet, Phytographia: t. 226, f. 1. 1692; Almag. Bot.: 350. 1696. - Typotype: Herb. Sloane 98: 59 ( BM-SL) .

Note: As noted by Knapp & Jarvis, 248.32 (LINN) is a post-1753 Browne collection and not original material for the name, so its treatment as the type by Symon (in J. Adelaide Bot. Gard. 4: 103. 1981) and others is erroneous.
