Dianthus collivagus Jord. in Billot, Annot.: 46. 1856. [December 1856]

Dianthus caryophyllus collivagus ≡ D. caryophyllus var. collivagus (Jord.) Cariot & St-Lager Étude Fl., éd. 8, 2: 104. 1889.

Dianthus sylvestris = D. sylvestris Wulfen in Jacq., Coll. 1: 237. 1786. [January-September 1786]. Ind. Loc.: "abonde sur les côteaux du Rhône près de Lyon".

Type.

(lectotype here designated): Dianthus scheuchzeri Rchb., Dianthus sylvestris auct. Gall. ex parte non Wulf , Lyon a Néron, Jordan, odor levis, folia ramis trigemina semper angustissima; Dianthus scheuchzeri Jord. non Rchb., Dianthus collivagus Jord., Lyon à Neron, ex herbis Jordan, July 1854, CLF056818 !

Note.

Other six specimens collected by Jordan are preserved at LY, but they are not original material, since they are lacking a date or reporting dates later than the protologue.

The lectotype designated here matches the protologue and corresponds to the current application of the name, which is considered as a heterotypic synonym of D. sylvestris subsp. sylvestris in Kerguélen (1993). The lectotype of D. collivagus , concerning the shape of calyx teeth, is very similar to the lectotype of D. inodorus (L.) Gaertn., which in turn is currently included within the variability of D. sylvestris ( Domina et al. 2021).
