The issue is whether Richard was indeed using the same specimen as Lamarck; the geographical origin is said to be different, and the descriptions do not match; for example in Lamarck's "
Cephalanthus
chinensis" the inflorescences are axillary whereas in Richard's "Anthocephalus" they are terminal. If specimens were the same, then "Anthocephalus" is a synonym of the Madagascan "
Cephalanthus
" and cannot be a generic name for the Asian kadam tree. If they were different (in spite of Richard's claim that they were the same) then "Anthocephalus" could be a generic name for the kadam tree. Based on the latter view, the name "Anthocephalus chinensis" has been widely used for the kadam tree.
