Aiton, W. (1789), Hortus Kewensis 2: 3 BHL [tax. nov.]
  • Type: "Nat. of Peru. introd. 1783, by Morris Thouin."
  • Comment: In the preface to volume 1 of Hortus Kewensis (1789), Aiton acknowledges "communications" of unpublished work sent to him by L'Héritier (p. vi) and cites several of these (p. xxi) in a list of "Books Quoted". This, combined with Aiton's citation of "L'Herit. stirp. nov. tom. 2 tab. 6" following the description, is here considered to constitute ascription of this new taxon name to L'Héritier by Aiton under ICN Art. 46.2 (Shenzhen Code, 2018).
