discussion
The name Hoya obscurinervia Merr. was validly published with a single gathering “ McClure 9819 ” cited in the protologue (Merrill, 1923). However, on the label of the syntype specimen (A 00076421), the collecting number is 2558 and the herbarium number is Canton Christian College Herbarium 9819. Therefore, the erroneous collecting number in the protologue is to be corrected.
