Léveillé (Fl. Kouy-Tchéou, 405. 1914-1915) misidentified material of this species as Reevesia thyrsoidea Lindley. A record of R. wallichii R. Brown from the Flora area by Dunn (J. Linn. Soc., Bot. 39: 484. 1911) was based on Henry 11510, a gathering of R. pubescens var. pubescens.
"Reevesia megaphylla" (Hu, Econ. Pl. Yunnan, 189. 1972) belongs here but was not validly published.
