names of which are incorrectly listed. Only species for 
which the correct name had been pointed out prior to 
1936 will be included. To coincide with Holland these 
species will be listed in alphabetical order according to 
their common names, and page references to Holland 
will be cited. In each case the correct scientific name 
will be given, together with the place of publication and 
the essential synonymy. In those instances where the 
error in Holland is due to failure to take up the earliest 
specific epithet available for a given species, no comment 
will be necessary. Elsewhere a few notes may be in order.

Chevalier has shown that names which include the 
specific epithet Balata , based on Achras Balata Aublet, 
cannot be maintained since they depend on an inaccurate 
interpretation of Aublet’s species. The name Achras
