Misapplied names

• Terminalia bialata Fern-Vill., Nov. App.: 80 (1880), non 'Kurz', Forest Fl. Burma 1: 456 (1877)
  • Note: When Rolfe cites T. bialata Fern.-Vill. as a synonym of this taxon, he distinguishes it from T. bialata 'Kurz'. Kurz in his Forest Fl. Burma, vol. 1 (1877) cited by Blanco (1880), however, attributes authority of Terminalia bialata to Wall..

Distribution

Native distribution areas:
Continental: Asia-Tropical Regional: Indian Subcontinent Bangladesh. Regional: Indo-China Cambodia, Laos, Myanmar, Thailand, Vietnam. Regional: Malesia Borneo, Malaya (Peninsular Malaysia), Philippines, Sulawesi. Regional: Malesia New Guinea (Papua New Guinea), Solomon Is.. References: Brummitt, R.K. 2001.

Notes

• Inclusion of Andaman Is. in native range seems to depend on where T. bialata (Roxb.) Steud. is to be placed. Chakrabarty et al. (2009) and Chakrabarty & Kumar (2023) distinguish both taxa, while Toyama et al. (2013) place T. bialata under T. calamansanai.
