• During revisionary work on the genus Staurogyne Wall. (Acanthaceae) in the Neotropics, the need for typifications was apparent. Lectotypes are designated for S. anigozanthus (Nees) Kuntze, S. diantheroides Lindau, S. elegans (Nees) Kuntze, S. hirsuta (Nees) Kuntze, S. minarum (Nees) Kuntze, S. repens (Nees) Kuntze, and S. riedeliana (Nees) Kuntze. Neotypes are selected for S. eustachya Lindau, S. mandioccana (Nees) Kuntze, and S. veronicifolia (Nees) Kuntze.
