Holotype: NY(00259331); isotype: K, NY (00259332), US (00325740). Note: The NY isotype was determined
as ‗holo- or iso-‗ by Pruski. raising an interesting point, especially since Rusby had determined both, the
isotype having been in the College of Pharmacy Herbarium, via the third subscriber listed by Rusby in the
distribution of Bang’s collections – ‗Mr. Wm. M. Canby, Wilmington, Del. (The Canby Herbarium has now
become the property of the New York College of Pharmacy).‘ (Rusby, 1893), incorporated into NY in 1948.
