SUMMARY
Uhdea bipinnatijida Kunth, Ind. Sem. Hort. Berol. 1847: 17. 1847. In this description the reference Verh. Vereins Beford. Gartenbaues Konigl. Preuss. Staaten, 1847, was cited, however a search of this journal revealed that the description was published in 1849. According to K. Koch (1864) this species was discovered by the Prussian consul Uhde at "Matmameros" in Mexico and was brought to the Botanic Garden in Berlin 1845 from where it was widely spread, Uhde S.n. The holotype has not been located, neotype selected by Morley (1980) is as follows: Herb. Schultz Bip. S.n. ex Hort. 25.ii.1864 (P!).
Polymnia grandis Kunth, Ind. Sem. Hort. Berol. 1847: [3. 1847, nom. nud pro syn. Kunth listed this name in synonymy but no description can be found. According to K. Koch (1864) this was a name under which the plant was sent to the Botanic Garden at Berlin and after it bloomed Kunth assigned it to Montalloa.
Montanoa heracleifolia Brongniart ex Groenland, Ann. Rev. Hart. 544. 1857, nom. nud. Based upon the following collection: MEXICO: seeds collected in 1843 and harvested in Hart. Bot. Paris, Dec 1845, A. B. Ohiesbrecht S.II. (P[2l!). Montagnaea heracleifolia Brongniart ex Andre, Ann. Rev. Hort. 369. 1863.j: 38. Type:' MEXICO, the description is probably based on the same material as that for Montanoa heracleifolia Brongniart ex Groenland but this is not so stated in the protologue (illustration is taken as the holotype; tracing of illustration, GH!). Morley (1980) selected a neotype but this is unnecessary because elements of the original material are available (illustration) and the neotype is therefore rejected.
Montanoa elegalls K. Koch, Wochenschr. Vereines Beford. Konigl. Preuss. Staaten 7: 408. 1864. Type: unknown. In the protologue Koch states that there is no information on how the plant came to Europe and that it has never flowered. The description of the leaf type is sufficient for it to be assigned to this taxon. Eriocoma elegalls (Koch) Kuntze, Rev. Gen. PI. 1: 336. 1891.
Montanoa pyramidata Schultz Bip. in K. Koch, Wochenschr. Vereines Beford. Gartenbaues Konigl. Preuss. Staaten 7: 408. [864. Type: MEXICO, Jalisco, Guadalajara, [853, D. Oliva s.n. (lectotype [Morley, 1980], P). Two collections are mentioned in the protologue. One is the lectotype and the other is A. Aschenborn s.n., which was probably at B (destroyed inWWII; in litt., H. W. Lack). Eriocoma pyramidata (Schultz Bip. in K. Koch) Kuntze, Rev. Gen. PI. 1: 336. 1891."
