Typification

Holotype: N.Z., near Auckland, D. Petrie 800, 1892, BM 1109228! Isotype: WELT M001607! The BM material is best considered the holotype, although it was not designated as such in the publication describing the genus. It was clearly designated in Dixon’s hand as the type, and it is unclear from Dixon (1915, publication title notwithstanding) whether any material remains in the Mitten herbarium.
