Naudin, Charles Victor (1815-1899) are at A, G, K and P. We have traced four relevant Wallichian collections at K ( K000867660 , K000867661 , K000867662 , K001038121 ) and one at G ( G00319884 ), but none in P and A. Also, we found three specimens at E ( E00288115 , E00288116 , E00288117 ) and one at NY ( NY00273279 ), but not sure whether they have been consulted by Naudin. We select the specimen at G ( G00319884 ) as the lectotype which has the annotation “4095 Sonerila arguta Brown, Mont Sillet, FD ” and best represents the species. There is a problem associated with ascribing “Silhet” collections either Bangladesh or India ( Meghalaya) as this locality is ambiguously used in the Wallich Catalogue ( Clarke, 1913) .
