ABSTRACT
Alectotypeis designatedfor AegineiiasaccharicolaBakh. (Oroban-
chaceae).
KEY WORDS: Aegtnetia, Orobanchaceae, Indonesia
In describing Aeginetia saccharicola Bakh. ais a new species in the family
Orobanchaceae, Bakhuizenvan den Brink (1933) designated four syntypes but
no holotype. All are housed at the Herbarium Bogoriense (BO) in Bogor, In-
donesia, where I observed them. Kohus 1910is hereby designated as lectotype
because ofthe better condition and greater quantity of preserved material.
