| Comments | Type by original designation. Comments: Five species are included and Mereschkowsky states after the description of L. clevei, p. 180 (p. 3 of reprint), "c'est le type du genre". Farr et al. (1979) and current internet version of the ING give a different reference: "Bot. Zap. 19: 89, 1902" (ref. 006508). Mereschkowsky 1902 (ref. 006508) gives a generic description in Russian p. 89 and in French p. 91, and descibes 5 species, L. clevei, L. peragalli, L. grunowii, L. Van Heurckii, L. schmidtii, but does not designate a type. According to the Journal's cover page, the publication date of ref. 006508 is 1902-1903, it is 1902 according to ING (current internet version). It is not clear which one of the two references, ref. 002086 or ref. 006508, was published first. |
