Type.

COLOMBIA • Neu Granada ; 6000–8000 ft.; Warscewicz s. n.; holotype: W! [ W 0253993 ]; isotype: K !.

Notes.

A single specimen at Reichenbach’s herbarium is identified as V. methonica in the author’s own handwriting. It also includes a note by co-author and collector Warscewicz indicating the locality information as it appears in the protologue. We find this sufficient to unambiguously determine it as the holotype.
