Original type data:
In Brasilià (Sellow n. 1381 !). O. dispersa Nees syst. p. 427, quoad pl. Sellowii (nec hb. Monac., v. supra O. Japonensis). (v.s. in hb. Berol.)
Additional type data:
Brazil, without locality: Sello 1381 (holotype B)
Miscellaneous information:
According to Meisner the specimen in M does not belong here, but it is not clear if this refers to the Martius specimen cited by Nees [probable] or to the collection Sello 1381 [not found in M]. There is another specimen of Sello 1381 in GZU; it needs to be checked whether it agrees with the B specimen. According to Rohwer (1986) a Sellow specimen without number in G-DC agrees with the B specimen. Later (in a handwritten note in his text) Rohwer expressed doubts about the placement of this name.
