Nomenclatural notes relevant to the flora of Indonesia

Abstrak

Some species described by Teijsmann and Binnendijk were published slightly earlier than is sometimes believed because of duplicate publication in different journals. In a few cases this results in a change in priority between competing names. The case of Rothmannia schoemannii (Rubiaceae) having priority over R. exaltata is highlighted. Zollinger published a number of new combinations in Annonaceae a few months before Miquel, so a trio of accepted names, Mitrephora polypyrena, Orophea celebica and O. corymbosa, should be correctly attributed to him.
