This article by Wallich was read before the Bengal Society in 11 Feb 1818 & 3 Jun 1818,
the type specimen should at least predate the publication date of 1820.
This Wallich specimen, collected in 1821 is not likely to be a type.
T. Zanoni, 2012......................................Probably	not the type
