Maesa camptobotrys (Primulaceae) is Sabia pauciflora (Sabiaceae), not Discocalyx (Primulaceae)

Abstract

The type specimen of Maesa camptobotrys is re-examined and morphology and characters are discussed. The specimen is a member of the genus Sabia (Sabiaceae) rather than the genus Discocalyx (Primulaceae) into which it was transferred; the name is formally placed as a synonym of Sabia pauciflora.
