It would seem that Tabebuia pentaphylla (L.)Hemsl. and its basionym are both legitimate, according to Art. 52.2. This name would then have precedence for the wide species concept of T. heterophylla. See Gentry (1992:193-198) for a discussion. The usage of Bignonia leucoxylon L. in Tabebuia is probably blocked by Tabebuia leucoxylla (Vell.)DC.
