Tripleurospermum maritimum subsp. inodorum Appleq.

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

Description

Chrysanthemum inodorum (Linnaeus) Linnaeus, Species Plantarum, ed. 2, 2: 1253. 1763.

"Habitat in ruderatis Sveciae & praestantioris Europae." RCN: 6437.

Basionym: Matricaria inodora L. (1755).

Lectotype (Humphries in Jarvis & Turland in Taxon 47: 364. 1998): Herb. Linn. No. 1012.12 (LINN).

Current name: Tripleurospermum maritimum (L.) W.D.J. Koch subsp. inodorum (L.) Appleq. (Asteraceae).

Note: Rauschen (in Folia Geobot. Phytotax. 9: 249-260. 1974) argued (incorrectly) that M. inodora L. (the basionym of C. inodorum) was a superfluous nomen novum for M. chamomilla L. (1753).

Applequist (in Taxon 51: 760. 2003) gives a detailed review of the nomenclature associated with this name, accepting Humphries’ typification and concluding that the correct name for the scentless mayweed is either Tripleurospermum inodorum (L.) Sch. Bip. at species rank, or T. maritimum subsp. inodorum (L.) Appleq. at subspecific rank.
