Sphagneticola calendulacea Pruski

  • 1. Department of Botany, Natural History Museum, Cromwell Road, London, UK

Description

Verbesina calendulacea Linnaeus, Species Plantarum 2: 902. 1753.

"Habitat in Zeylona." RCN: 6524.

Lectotype (Grierson in Dassanayake & Fosberg, Revised Handb. Fl. Ceylon 1: 215. 1980; Pruski in Novon 6: 411. 1996): Herb. Hermann 1: 73, No. 311 (BM-000594505; iso- BM, Herb. Hermann 2: 16; 3: 21; 4: 43).

Current name: Sphagneticola calendulacea (L.) Pruski (Asteraceae).

Note: Grierson (in Dassanayake & Fosberg, Revised Handb. Fl. Ceylon 1: 215. 1980) indicated material in Herb. Hermann (BM) as type but did not distinguish between the various specimens scattered between four volumes. However, as these appear to be part of a single gathering, Art. 9.15 applies so Grierson is the original typifier, with Pruski subsequently restricting the earlier choice.
