Generitype of Allionia Linnaeus, nom. cons.

Current name: Allionia incarnata L. ( Nyctaginaceae).

Note: Allionia Linnaeus 1759, nom. cons. against Allionia Loefl. 1758 . Although Turner (in Phytologia 77: 52. 1994) indicated Löfling material in LINN, from Venezuela, as the holotype, no such material exists there and the name appears to need a neotype.
