03AB9F2BFFD7687D82A92912FB24FF51.taxon	materials_examined	Type — Bhutan (‘ Bootan’), 7000 – 9000 ft, sin. dat., W. Griffith 485, Kew distrib. no. 3482 (lectotype: K!, [the bottom specimen associated with no. 485, barcode no. K 000442405], designated here). Ξ Gaultheria semi-infera (C. B. Clarke) Airy Shaw (1941: 306). Fig. 3. Clarke (l. c.) questionably assigned this species to Diplycosia because he considered the fruit (‘ berry’) to be unlike that of both Gaultheria and Diplycosia. Later, after a critical study, Airy Shaw (1941) assigned the species to Gaultheria. In the protologue, Clarke cited “ Griff. Itin. Notes, 127, no. 484 & 485, Bhotan, alt. 7000 - 9000 ft and Griffith Kew Distribution no. 3482 ”. The two plants bearing numbers 484 & 485 are mounted on a single sheet in the Hooker herbarium at K (barcode no. K 000442405). The bottom one, bearing a slip with the number 485, is designated here as the lectotype as it matches most closely the description provided in the protologue. The Griffith specimen with the above label data at GH lacks a collection number and therefore its nomenclatural status is uncertain.
