corresponds to that given in the original description as the collection place "Brasilia australi ad 
Monte Video", and thus I chose one of the two duplicates of this collection at B as the lectotype. 
The typification of Oreodaphne vesiculosa is not satisfactorily solved. Nees did not give 
any specific number for Sellow's collection, and he did not give any further information in his 
Systema Laurinarum. Meissner, however, gives Sellow 4597 as the material studied for that 
species, but in the material borrowed from different herbaria for this study that Sellow collection 
was not found. The only annotated material as a possible type is a Sellow collection at G without 
number.
