open access: yesTAXON, Volume 75, Issue 2, April 2026.
Abstract The type material of the almost forgotten fossil‐species Juglans nux‐taurinensis is newly analysed, a lectotype is designated, and new conspecific material detected at the Italian type locality La Morra is described. We show that Juglans nux‐taurinensis must be reassigned to Carya because the locule cast of the nutshell shows two inner ...

Lectotypifications in the Genus Tococa Aublet (Melastomataceae)

open access: yesNovon, 2001
Lectotypes for 11 species of Tococa are here designated, either because the holotypes were lost during the fire at Berlin and there are known extant isotypes, or because several syntypes were cited in the original descriptions. Three neo- types are here designated, since the holotypes are lost or destroyed and no isotypes have been located to date.

An improved phylogeny and revised taxonomy of Catillariaceae (Lecanoromycetes, Ascomycota)

open access: yesTAXON, Volume 75, Issue 2, April 2026.
Abstract The boundaries of the family Catillariaceae have largely remained untested through phylogenetic methods. Recent studies have led to the transfer of several genera previously classified in Catillariaceae to the newly described family Leprocaulaceae. Despite these changes, the distinction between Catillariaceae, Leprocaulaceae, and Catinariaceae

On the Lectotypification of Danaea elliptica

open access: yesAmerican Fern Journal, 2000
Prior lectotypifications of Danaea elliptica are rejected because they did not take into account the one adequate specimen cited by the author of the species. This specimen is chosen here as lectotype, which enables the name D. elliptica to continue to be used in its usual sense. J. E. Smith in Rees (1808), in his treatment of Danaea, included D. alata
