Resumen

On the basis of previously presented molecular studies, Rhizophora samoensis (Hochr.) Salvoza
and R. brevistyla Salvoza (Rhizophoraceae) are here reinstated as valid names for the Eastern
Pacific red mangroves. The identical meaning of vernacular names of R. samoensis from Samoa and
coastal Ecuador is here reported for first time. The lectotype of the basionym Rhizophora mangle
var. samoensis is designated.
