Remarks

Records from Bangladesh refer probably to notes in older literature, mentioning the taxon from “Sylhet” (or “Silhet”; today in Bangladesh). In reality, it is probably not well-known from this country. Maybe that Sylhet was just the shipping harbor of old material in the 19th century (probably accompanying the tea export?) (Naumann & Nässig 2022).
