Habitat in nemoribus Andium Provinciae Tarmae ad Vitoc arcem. Augosto fructibus onustam hanc specimen offendit D. Joannes Tafalla.
Additional type data:
Peru. Huánuco: Muña, Ruiz & Pavón s.n. (holotype, MA? p.p.; isotypes, B, BM p.p., F, non G).
Miscellaneous information:
Rohwer (1993) had seen only a photo of the presumed holotype in MA. The specimen in G is Nectandra japurensis.
Rohwer (1986) considered this name invalid, because the text of the Flora Peruviana et Chilensis 4 remained unpublished until 1955. However, the plates have been distributed at some time between 1804 and 1830, and the plate of this species shows details of the fruit. According to Art. 42.3 /42.4 this is sufficient for valid publication, although the precise date cannot be ascertained.
