Nomenclatural Notes
Status: nom. illeg. nom. superfl.
Remarks
The genus name Berthelotia DC. is typified by B. lanceolata DC.; Nelson (1924: 55) erroneously treated Berthelotia as a later homonym (non Bertholletia Bonpl. 1807) and included Berthelotia as a synonym of Eremohylema, and thus the preceding genus name was superfluous and illegitimate when published. Nevertheless, Nelson cited E. sericea (Nutt.) A. Nelson as the type of Eremohylema. Therefore, Eremohylema was published as the name of a new genus, has its own type, and is not typified by the type Berthelotia (see Shenzhen Code Art. 7.5)
