5. Dianthus racemosus Visiani (1829: 12) View in CoL
Lectotype (designated here):— CROATIA. Dalmatia. Sib.co [Sibenico] in colle S. Giorgio , Visiani s.n., s.d. ( PAD-HD05069 !, right specimen).
Notes: — Dianthus racemosus was described by Visiani (1829), who cited a specimen from Šibenik in Dalmatia: “ Sib. co [Sibenico] in colle S. Giorgio ”. The protologue includes a morphological description and the indication of the geographical area in which the species occurs: “ In agri Sibenicensis collibus humilioribus asperis alle Torette, S. Giorgio et Jaderae ”. In PAD herbarium we found a Visiani specimen (PAD-HD05069!) that certainly is original material, and here we select the right individual as lectotype.A confusion with the name D. racemosus happened when Visiani provided an illustration of two plants of D. racemosus in the second volume of his Flora Dalmatica (1847: fig. 1a and fig. 1b on table 35). In fact, the plants shown on his table 35 clearly belong to two different taxa. Twentythree years later, Visiani in the third volume of his Flora Dalmatica (1852: 162) made a new combination: “ Dianthus ciliatus var. racemosus ”. This name is superfluous because Visiani cited D. ciliatus b. litoralis as a synonym, referring to Reichenbachs’ Icones Florae Germanicae et Helveticae 6 ( Reichenbach 1844: 47, pl. 226, fig. 5047).
The name Dianthus racemosus is validly published and today is accepted and treated as a synonym of D. ciliatus subsp. ciliatus .
Other original material examined: — CROATIA. In coll. Dalm. Visiani s.n., s.d. (HAL-11254!).
