Taxonomy

Several of the names mentioned below were included in a list of nomina nuda of NORONHA, which were published under his name in , a volume later reprinted with a different pagination. Unfortunately the names were all taken up in Index Kewensis and have thus come into 'circulation', the reason we account for them. HASSKARL has endeavoured by means of the vernacular names, added to the Latin plant names in NORONHA'S list, to evaluate the latter. This interpretation was used by Index Kewensis. This is especially in Labiatae a hazardous proceeding. It could be possible, in studying NORONHA'S mss in Paris, to come to a more definite conclusion, but this is, it seems, a waste of time as the names have no botanical value.
The same can be said of names listed by THUNBERG in . Also these names could be evaluated in studying his collections at Uppsala.

Notes

Erroneously mentioned from the Malay Peninsula in Index Kewensis; it was described from Lower Thailand.
