861C878BFFFBC95215B8A26AFE68EDE8.taxon	discussion	Notes: — Gangopadhyay (2011), while transferring Machilus bootanica to Phoebe, united P. hainesiana with it. However, possibly he had some doubt about this merger because subsequently Gangopadhyay et al. (2020) treated the latter as a distinct species. The present studies revealed that P. goalparensis as well as P. hainesiana represent less pubescent forms of P. bootanica with less persistent hairs on different parts but otherwise indistinguishable. Additionally, P. cooperiana is also found to be conspecific with P. bootanica. The specimen, A. Das 10530 (CAL 0000021985) collected from Sadya in Arunachal Pradesh and identified as Phoebe cooperiana represents a distinct species. The impression of the broken fruits indicates that these were ellipsoid and 3 – 4 cm long (as described in P. cooperiana) but the specimens differs from P. cooperiana clearly by the absence of rings of bud scale scars on the twigs, evenly spaced leaves with glaucous undersurface. The material possibly represents a hitherto undescribed species allied to P. cathia but we refrain from describing it due to its poor condition. The material, Haines 303 was collected from three different localities, West Duars, Sikkim and Darjeeling (as marked on the specimens). The original drawing of Phoebe hainesiana shows a flowering twig, dissected parts of flower and an intact fruit. Thus, the drawing corresponds to at least two of these collections, in flowering and fruiting. Accordingly the flowering specimens at Kew bearing handwriting of Brandis is selected here as the lectotype. In the duplicate specimen at HBG, the “ West Duars ” has been struck out and Sikkim is written in Pen. There are further collections with field number Haines 303 at CAL without citation of any locality. Hutchinson (1916: 190) cited “ INDIA. Assam: Goalpara district; Aie Reserve, stem buttressed at the base, fls. Feb., fr. July, Upendranath Kanjilal in Dehra Dun Herb. 5092 ” in the protologue of Phoebe goalparensis, There are several specimens belonging to collection no. 5092 of which four specimens are at DD, two at ASSAM, and two at K. The one of the specimens, K 000778866 bearing Hutchinson annotation ‘ Phoebe goalparensis Hutchinson n. sp. ” was collected in April, so it must be considered as an uncited original material instead of syntype because April collection was not cited in the protologue. As the protologue states that type was deposited in ‘ Dehra Dun Herb. ’, we preferred to choose the lectotype from the collections of DD. The best preserved specimen at DD bearing the print label ‘ TYPE’ in red is designated here as lectotype. The type of Phoebe assamica is not available. However, from the description, it appears that the species belongs here. The holotype of P. baishyae has been misplaced. Hence, the original drawing has been selected here as the lectotype of the name as per Art. 9.12 (Turland et al. 2018). It is a good match with P. bootanica in all respects except for the relatively shorter fruits.	en	Chakrabarty, Tapas, Kumar, Anand, Ghoshal, Partha Pratim (2023): A revision of the genus Phoebe (Lauraceae) in the Indo-Burmese region.

861C878BFFFDC95115B8A68BFED6E71A.taxon	discussion	Notes: — Hooker (1886) treated Phoebe wightii as a synonym of P. paniculata (a synonym of P. cathia) and cited wide distribution of the species from Myanmar and Nepal to the Nilgiri hills. However, Gamble (1925) recognized them as distinct species based on several differences. Typical Phoebe wightii would indeed appear to represent a distinct species, apparently differing from P. cathia by the dense tomentum on the petioles and undersurface of the leaves, and the shorter inflorescences with fewer branches bearing fewer flowers. However, examination of wider range of specimens revealed that the two species are clearly connected to each other through intergradations and it is not possible to maintain them as distinct species. Cinnamomum cathia Don (1825: 66) was described based on the collection of Francis Buchanan-Hamilton from Nepal. According to Stafleu & Cowan (1976: 668), the types of the name published in Prodromus Florae Nepalensis are deposited at BM and duplicates at the Smith herbarium of LINN. There are two specimens at BM and LINN and these should be considered as syntypes under Art. 9.6 Ex. 5 (Turland et al. 2018, see also McNeill 2014). The well preserved specimen at BM is designated here as lectotype. As regards the type of Phoebe wightii, in addition to the collection of Perrottet, there are two more sheets at G-DC (barcodes G 00693564 and G 00693565) bearing annotations by Meisner in one and drawing of anthers on the other but unfortunately the names of the collectors of these specimens are not discernible. Out of several duplicates available for lectotype selection of Ocotea paniculata, a good fruiting specimen K 001116529 is chosen here. A profusely flowering specimen K 000228472 is selected as lectotype of Ocotea pubescens. As the collection of Wallich 2595 is a mixture of three species, the additional materials have been cited as syntypes rather than isolectotypes. Phoebe prazeri was described based on a material with immature fruits, matching well with P. cathia. Mention of the habit as “ climber ” is possibly incorrect. Gangopadhyay et al. (2020) were possibly confused with the identity of P. pallida subsp. borii because the holotype bears Gangopadhyay’s determination as P. cathia. Examination of the holotype revealed that the same belongs here.	en	Chakrabarty, Tapas, Kumar, Anand, Ghoshal, Partha Pratim (2023): A revision of the genus Phoebe (Lauraceae) in the Indo-Burmese region.

861C878BFFF0C95E15B8A4EEFED4EABD.taxon	discussion	Notes: — The following field numbers were cited in the protologue of Ocotea lanceolata: Wall. Cat. n. 2599 A – E. It was further specified: “ Crescit in Sillet (F. D.) et e Sillet in Hortem Calcutta numillata; in Napalia (Wallich a 1820 et 1821). ” They correspond to the Wallich, Numer. List Nos. 2599 A, 2599 B and 2599 C. Of the available specimens which we could examine, Wallich 2599 C from Nepal (K 001116537) is the best specimen with flowers and fruits and the same is selected here as the lectotype of the name. As regards Laurus lanceolaria, there are four collections of Roxburgh at BM and MO from Bangladesh (BM 014605560, BM 014605561, MO- 247600, MO- 255220). The MO specimens bear the label with the annotation “ Ex Herbario Musei Britannici ” and it indicates that both MO specimens were distributed from BM. The specimen BM 014605561 bears two flowering twigs and two ticket size labels with the name “ Laurus ” and “ Sundegool ” in Roxburgh’s handwriting while there is no annotation by Roxburgh on the other BM specimen BM 014605560. It may be noted that Roxburgh stated in the protolouge: “ Sundhigool, the vernacular name in Silhet where it is indigenous ”. Although, there are two original Flora Indica drawings of Roxburgh available at CAL and K, we have prioritized the specimen over the drawing for lectotype selection. Hence, the specimen BM 014605561 has been selected here as the lectotype of the name. Phoebe lummaoensis was differentiated with P. lanceolata but unfortunately the range of variation of the latter was not taken into account while describing the new species which is synonymized here. Likewise, the peninsular Indian population, representing a variant with shorter, few-branched panicles with fewer flowers was described as P. palghatensis. Here also the range of variation of the species was not taken into account.	en	Chakrabarty, Tapas, Kumar, Anand, Ghoshal, Partha Pratim (2023): A revision of the genus Phoebe (Lauraceae) in the Indo-Burmese region.

For example, the supposed duplicate at K (K 000228471) bears two twigs, of which the left hand side specimen is of Phoebe lanceolata while the right hand side twig represents P. cathia. The species is somewhat poorly known and it needs further investigation. There is a specimen from Thailand at E (E 00726632) identified as P. pallida and it bears globose immature fruits with about 5 mm long pedicels.	en	Chakrabarty, Tapas, Kumar, Anand, Ghoshal, Partha Pratim (2023): A revision of the genus Phoebe (Lauraceae) in the Indo-Burmese region.
