Abstract

The date of valid publication of Cereus martinii, a name listed from three different sources in Index Kewensis, is ascertained to be 1854. Labouret's protologue, which appeared in an exceedingly rare journal, is here reproduced. The combination Harrisia martinii, often attributed to Britton & Rose was validated three years earlier, in 1917, by Britton.
