- <p><b><i>Ixora calycina</i> Thwaites</b></p><p>(Fig. 4)</p><p><i>Enumeratio Plantarum Zeylaniae</i>: 155 (Thwaites 1859).</p><p>TYPE MATERIAL. — <b>Sri Lanka</b> • ‘Zeylon’, Central Province; up to 7000 ft; <i>s.d.</i>; <i>Thwaites CP 448</i>; lectotype (<b>designated here</b>): CAL [CAL0000069728!]; isolectotype: CAL [CAL0000069729!].</p><p>LECTOTYPIFICATION REMARKS</p><p>Thwaites (1859) described <i>Ixora calycina</i> and cited <i>CP 448</i> along with ‘Hab. Central Province, up to an elevation of 7000 feet’. Husain & Paul (1989), mentioned the specimen at CAL as the type. But there are two sheets available with the same collection number, <i>CP 448</i> (CAL 0000069728, CAL 0000069729). Hence lectotypification is needed as Husain & Paul (1989) did not specify which of the two duplicates available in CAL is the lectotype. There are 12 more sheets with the same collection number in different herbaria: two at K in a single sheet (K 000031359, K 000031360), five at P (P 03987727, P 00836689, P 00836690, P 00836691, P 00836692), one each at BR (BR 0000005317400), FR (FR 0031479), GH (GH 00096724), LE (LE 00017471), MH (MH 00002969), NYBG (NY 00131979) and TCD (TCD 0018033). The sheet CAL 0000069728, which has the same location details as in the protologue is chosen here as the lectotype, and the rest as isolectotypes.</p>
