species
Dicranum billardierei
The epithet honours the remarkably widely travelled French botanist J.J.H. de Labillardière. The species epithet and the collector’s name have been spelt in various ways in the literature. Scott & Stone (1976, p. 154) employed the spelling “billardieri”, while Klazenga (2003) used “billarderi”. The ICN, Article 60.7 (McNeill et al. 2011, viewed on line, 27 Jan. 2015) states that epithets based on de Labillardière’s name should be spelt “billardierei”, as done here.
Lectotype: Australia, J.J.H. de Labillardiѐre, BM-Bescherelle. Designated by Klazenga 2003. Not seen. When designating a lectotype in BM, Klazenga (2003, p. 430) suggested that original material, in this case in the Bridel herbarium, would have been destroyed at Berlin during WWII.
