Summary

Examination of the type from Burma of Guatteria costata in the East India Company herbarium at Kew shows that it belongs in Trivalvaria and provides an earlier name for T. dubia (Kurz) J. Sinclair. A new combination is proposed. A further synonym, Polyalthia montana Ridl., is lectotypified.
