Amphoridium semense Schimp. in Par., nom. nud. is
the base name for this taxon. Amphoridium is
a synonym for Amphidium, but this taxon cannot
be dealt with satisfactorily until a type is nominated
and described, or it is synonymised with another
taxon. There is a ‘type’ sheet in BM for this
taxon, containing specimens from Herb. Hampe,
