REMARKS

Pau (1891) wrote: “ Santolina canescens Lag. = S. rosmarinifolia L. genuina ”. The same author (1907) published “ Santolina rosmarinifolia L. genuina Pau pl. exs. (1905)” without rank and diagnosis (MA 126700: “Mancilla, V.1905, Pau ”). Other specimens from the locus classicus (PO 50776, 50777 [9.VII.1905], and E 00231985, MPU [8.VII.1905]) have different collection data. Guinea (1953) assigned it a varietal rank, whereas Carrasco de Salazar (1975) and Escriche (1975) confirm it. However, the epithet “ genuina ” is not validly published in accordance with Art. 24.3 of the ICBN ( McNeill et al. 2012).
