Seven emendations, 16 new synonyms, 29 typifications (24 of which are lectotypifications), 4 neotypifications, 1 epitypification, and 1 status change are proposed. Emendations are related primarily to the first description of the fruit of Adenocalymma dichilum, A. divaricatum, A. fruticosum, A. hypostictum, A. macrophyllum, A. salmoneum, and A. scabriusculum.
