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

Description

Solanum nigrum Linnaeus, Species Plantarum 1: 186. 1753.

"Habitat in Orbis totius cultis." RCN: 1473.

Lectotype (Henderson in Contr. Queensland Herb. 16: 19. 1974): Herb. Linn. No. 248.18 (LINN).

Generitype of Solanum Linnaeus (vide Börner, Bot.-Syst. Not.: 282. 1912; Abh. Naturwiss. Ver. Bremen 21: 282. 1913).

Current name: Solanum nigrum L. subsp. nigrum (Solanaceae).

Note: Although Baylis (in Trans. Roy. Soc. New Zealand 85: 380. 1958) stated that the nomenclatural type had been examined, he did not indicate what it was. D’Arcy’s choice of 248.18 (LINN) as type (in Ann. Missouri Bot. Gard. 61: 855. 24 Dec 1974) is pre-dated by that of Henderson using the same collection (in Contr. Queensland Herb. 16: 19. 2 Apr 1974).
