457F87AD0D6735189BFCFD6BFCC1F9E9.taxon	description	In The Bengal Dispensatory, Scilla pancration is listed with other Scilla species. There is no author given for the name and no reference to Squilla pancration. However, as the full title of The Dispensatory indicates, Lindley’s works were consulted by O’Shaughnessy and he refers to Squilla pancration in his Flora Medica (Lindley 1838). This indirect reference and the unique epithet make it clear that a transfer from Squilla to Scilla has been effected by O’Shaughnessy, and the combination is considerably earlier than that presently listed in IPNI. Currently the species is considered to be a member of the largely African genus Drimia (Manning et al. 2003). In researching the synonymy of the species I also found an earlier publication for the combination Urginea pancration. This had been attributed to de Philippe in a number of publications, but I have not been able to trace any original work. Speta (1998) provides reference to a French journal of engineering, but this is a short account of the starch extraction business run by one J. Giordano de Philippe (Anonymous 1863), with no mention of species names.	en	Turner, I. M. (2011): The contribution of Sir William Brooke O’Shaughnessy (1809 - 1889) to plant taxonomy.

457F87AD0D67351F9BFCF953FE2AFA60.taxon	description	IPNI attributes this taxon to Royle (1847: 305), but it appears earlier in The Bengal Dispensatory. However Lindley provided the combination before that in his Flora Medica (1838). All these authors base the combination on Garcinia pictoria Roxb. Garcinia pictoria first appeared as a name in the Hortus Bengalensis (Roxburgh 1814). Note that this must not be confused with Xanthochymus pictorius Roxb., which was published earlier but refers to another species, and to add to the confusion de Candolle (1824) mistakenly referred to as Xanthochymus tinctorius and set in train further nomenclatural complications.	en	Turner, I.

457F87AD0D60351E9BFCF9BFFCEEFE01.taxon	description	Garcinia cornea auct. non L: Roxb. (1832: 629). Voucher: INDIA. s. loc., Anonymous s. n., s. dat. ([EIC 4852 A] ex Herb. Roxburgh (K-W )). Garcinia pictoria was not published by Buchanan-Hamilton and its authorship is correctly referred to Roxburgh. There are some obvious differences between Roxburgh’s description of G. pictoria and Buchanan- Hamilton’s account of Oxycarpus indica. Most notably Roxburgh states that G. pictoria is only known from the highest parts of Wynaad District (in what is now the state of Kerala in south-west India) and attempts to bring it in to cultivation in the lowlands have repeatedly failed. There are also Roxburgh icons [available online at: http: // apps. kew. org / floraindica / home. do] of Garcinia cornea [1446] and G. pictoria [2279] that show them to be different. The Garcinia from the Calcutta garden is not G. pictoria as published by Roxburgh. Garcinia pictoria Roxb. is generally considered a synonym of Garcinia morella (Gaertn.) Desr., though Maheshwari (1964) in a revision of Indian Garcinia kept it separate. There is a G. pictoria specimen in the herbarium of the Natural History Museum (BM), annotated ‘ Flowers of the Wynaad Gamboge tree from Mr Dyer’, which is suitable as a lectotype for the species.	en	Turner, I.
