Pyrola uniflora Linnaeus, Species Plantarum 1: 397. 1753.

"Habitat in Europae borealis sylvis." RCN: 3118.

Lectotype (Basu in J. Econ. Taxon. Bot. 14: 463. 1990): Herb. Linn. No. 568.10 (LINN) .

Current name: Moneses uniflora (L.) A. Gray ( Ericaceae / Pyrolaceae).

Note: Basu (in J. Econ. Taxon. Bot. 14: 463. 1990) indicated unspecified material in LINN as the holotype. As there is only a single sheet associated with this name, Biju’s statement is accepted as a formal typification (with holotype modified to lectotype under Art. 9.8). Dorr & Barrie (in Brittonia 45: 179. 1993), unaware of Basu’s choice, reached the same conclusion, and provide some discussion about the name.
