Wallich 205 is represented by 3 sheets in K, and on one sheet the left-hand specimen (K001109547) is marked 205 a, and bears the name Roxburgh. It is marked as isotype of A. mixtum by Morton. According to Morton (1974) it was probably collected by C. Smith on Ambon.

The other two specimens  (K001109545-6) are collected by Geo. Porter, Penang, and one of these should be selected as lectotype.
