|
Lectotypes of twenty-eight names of taxa currently recognized or synonymized in Cardamine are designated as part of the work on the account of the genus for the Pan-Himalayan Flora. Among them, the previous first-step lectotypification of the name C. calthifolia is finalized. In cases when specimen images are available online, stable identifiers for specimens, other permanent links, or links via JSTOR Global Plants are provided.
Cardamine , Himalaya, nomenclature, stable identifiers for specimens, taxonomy, typification
During the work by the last author on the Brassicaceae (Cruciferae) account for the Pan-Himalayan Flora (PHF), it became evident that the majority of accepted names and their synonyms in that flora require lectotypification. The present paper focuses on the lectotypification of names of taxa currently placed in Cardamine L., a genus with 43 species in the PHF.
Herbarium specimens, especially types and authentic collections, deposited at B, BM, E, F, G, GH, K, LE, MO, NAS, NY, P, US, W, and WU were examined during the past two decades. In cases when specimen images are available online, stable identifiers for specimens (
In lectotypifying names of taxa, we strictly followed the International Code of Nomenclature for algae, fungi, and plants (
Entries are arranged alphabetically by their basionyms, and names in boldface are those of currently accepted names of taxa. Bibliographic citations are given for all names and only examined and designated lectotypes and their duplicates are listed. Barcode numbers of lectotypes and isolectotypes are given (if available) following the herbarium acronym.
The type status of the following names of taxa is determined, and justifications for their typification is presented.
1. Cardamine brachycarpa Franch., Bull. Soc. Bot. France 26: 83. 1879, nom illeg.(http://ipni.org/urn:lsid:ipni.org:names:280196-1:1.4), non Opiz, Naturalientausch 11: 411. 1826 (http://ipni.org/urn:lsid:ipni.org:names:280195-1:1.3). Described from: [JAPAN] “Insul. Nippon, prov. Etchigo, circa Niigata, secus vias humidas (R. P. Faurie)”. Lectotype (designated here): [JAPAN, Prefecture Niigata], “Nippon, Niigata, secus vias, [U. J.] Faurie 23” – P! (P00747512 [http://coldb.mnhn.fr/catalognumber/mnhn/p/p00747512]); Isolectotype – P! (P00747513 [http://coldb.mnhn.fr/catalognumber/mnhn/p/p00747513]). = Cardamine flexuosa subsp. debilis O.E.Schulz
2. Cardamine calthifolia H. Lév., Bull. Géogr. Bot. 24: 281. 1914 (http://ipni.org/urn:lsid:ipni.org:names:280217-1:1.1.2.1.1.3). Described from: [CHINA, Yunnan] “Vallée de Kiao-Mé-Ti, 3000 m., mai 1913”. Lectotype [designated here (second step lectotypification after
A single collection was cited in the protologue of the name, but none of the three duplicates mentioned above carry the species name nor were they annotated by Hector Léveillé.
3. Cardamine circaeoides Hook.f. & Thomson, J. Proc. Linn. Soc., Bot. 5: 144. 1861 (http://ipni.org/urn:lsid:ipni.org:names:280232-1:1.1.2.1.1.3). Described from: [INDIA] “In Himalaya orientali temperata, Sikkim interiore, sylvis, alt. 5000-7000 ped. ! J. D. H. (v.v.)”. Lectotype (designated here, or perhaps holotype): [Label 1]: [INDIA] “Hab. Sikkim, Regio temp., J. D. H[ooker]”; [Label 2]: [INDIA] “295 Hab. wet wood, Gohsun, Sikkim, 5000 ft.” – K! (K000077050 [http://specimens.kew.org/herbarium/K000077050]); Doubtful isolectotypes – B!

The K specimen above was collected at an elevation of 5,000 ft, which is in agreement with the protologue, whereas labels of the B and P sheets indicate the elevation of 6,000‒10,000 ft. It is questionable whether the three specimens above were collected from the same area, and that is why we feel that the B and P specimens are doubtful isolectotypes.
4. Cardamine delavayi Franch., Bull. Soc. Bot. France 33: 397. 1886 (http://ipni.org/urn:lsid:ipni.org:names:280264-1:1.4). Described from: [CHINA], “Yun-nan, ad fontes prope Mo-so-yun, haud procul a Lankong; fl. fr. immat., 2 april. 1885 (Delav. n. 1838)”.

(US00324476 [http://plants.jstor.org/stable/10.5555/al.ap.specimen.us00324476]).
A single collection was cited in the original publication of this species, but the existence of two duplicates of the same collection at P and one in US annotated by Franchet calls for lectotypification, which is done here.
5. Cardamine elegantula Hook.f. & Thomson, J. Proc. Linn. Soc., Bot. 5: 146. 1861 (http://ipni.org/urn:lsid:ipni.org:names:280285-1:1.1.2.1.1.3). Described from: [BHUTAN] “In Himalaya temperata orientali, Bhotan ! alt. 6500 ped., Griffith”. Lectotype (here designated): “[BHUTAN] “Bhotan”, 1838, [W.] Griffith 1360” – K!

Two collection numbers by William Griffith from Bhutan, Griffith 1360 and Griffith 1756, are mounted on the same sheet at K. The latter collection carries no determination and is attached by two pins to the sheet of the former collection, whereas the lectotype designated here carries Hooker’s determination as “Card. elegantula Hf. & T.”, has well-developed fruits and is represented by duplicates at B and P.

Five duplicates of the type collection of Cardamine hirsuta var. flaccida are housed at P, and the most complete specimen with Franchet’s annotation is designated here as the lectotype.

Six collections of Joseph Dalton Hooker from Sikkim are mounted on two herbarium sheets at K, and they vary in the elevations and dates of collection. The single collection in which the habitat was given is designate herein as the lectotype. The Sikkim duplicates at B and P do not carry the exact elevations and collection dates of the lectotype and, therefore, we are uncertain if they are part of the same collection.
We thank Anthony R. Brach (A-GH) for his help in locating and/or digitizing images of various species. We also thank Zhang Libing (MO) for his help with the Chinese text and localities. I. A. Al-Shehbaz is profoundly grateful to the United States National Science Foundation for the OPUS grant DEB-1252905 that supported part of this research.
