Evidentiary scope
The Paris catalogue gives the locality as Tranninh (the old name for the Xiangkhouang plateau), the province as Xiangkhouang, the collector as Miéville, the number 41082 and the year 1920, without a day or month. The duplicate sheet at Leiden carries a handwritten Laos. Tranninh. Neither the labels nor the catalogue record a habitat, use, local name or note on cultivation, so nothing shows whether the plant was cultivated, was growing wild or had escaped. The accession is classified Unknown. No conservation priority is assigned.
Georeferencing
Tranninh is the historical name of the Xiangkhouang plateau, an area, not a settlement, and the labels narrow it no further. No coordinate is asserted.
Editorial treatment
The number 41082 belongs to Chevalier's Plantes de l'Indo-Chine series; the Paris catalogue records it as the collector's number and names Miéville as the collector, and the page follows the catalogue. The struck-through Coll. Aug. CHEVALIER on the Leiden label is consistent with that.
The collector's forename is not given by either herbarium and is not asserted here.
Source discrepancies
- Paris gives the collector as Miéville. The Leiden label's handwritten collector line is not clearly legible in the published image.
