Description
Sedum rupestre Linnaeus, Species Plantarum 1: 431. 1753.
"Habitat ad radices montium Europae." RCN: 3354.
Lectotype (Heath in Calyx 2: 82. 1992): [icon] " Sedum rupestre repens, foliis compressis" in Dillenius, Hort. Eltham. 2: 343, t. 256, f. 333. 1732.
Current name: Sedum rupestre L. (Crassulaceae).
Note: 't Hart & Jarvis (in Taxon 42: 407, f. 1. 1993) designated Herb. Clifford: 176, Sedum 4 (BM) as lectotype, a choice that would have maintained traditional usage of the name. However, unknown to them, Heath had made an earlier (1992) choice of the Dillenian plate as lectotype. Unfortunately, this clearly depicts a plant of S. forsterianum Sm., a fact either unknown to, or not mentioned by, Heath (in Calyx 2: 82. 1992; 5: 52. 1995). Sedum rupestre does not appear to have been taken up in its new sense, nor has a proposal for its conservation yet been made.
