Description
Dianthus caryophyllus Linnaeus, Species Plantarum 1: 410. 1753.
"Habitat in Italia. Rajus." RCN: 3209.
Lectotype (Ghafoor in Jafri & El-Gadi, Fl. Libya 59: 104. 1978): Herb. Linn. No. 581.8 (LINN), see opposite, above left.
Generitype of Dianthus Linnaeus (vide Hitchcock, Prop. Brit. Bot.: 155. 1929).
Current name: Dianthus caryophyllus L. (Caryophyllaceae).
Note: See detailed discussion by Langen & al. (in Taxon 33: 717. 1984), who chose a Herb. Clifford sheet (see their f. 1) as lectotype, unaware of Ghafoor’s earlier choice. As the Linnaean sheet appears to be original material, Ghafoor’s choice is valid and has priority.
