Vanilla verrucosa Hauman

28.Vanilla verrucosaHauman (Hauman 1917: 365) Fig. 3 G, H Type. ARGENTINA – Misiones • Piray; 29 Mar. 1901; Kermes 127; holotype: BAB! [BAB 00004760, two sheets]. Notes. Hauman (1917) described Vanilla verrucosa and explicitly indicated the single specimen he used for his description, noting it was deposited at Herbario Ministerio de Agricultura (now BAB). Additionally, Hauman mentioned two other sterile specimens, which he suspected may belong to a different species. The holotype consists of two sheets, both sharing the same barcode, labelled as “ A ” and “ B ”. Both sheets are sterile: the sheet “ A ” bears the corresponding label and consists of a plant with several leaves and a short inflorescence with a few floral bracts, while the sheet “ B ” contains a stem without leaves but with roots.
