Treatment

Schoenus spathaceus Linnaeus View in CoL , Species Plantarum, ed. 2, 1: 63. 1762, nom. illeg.

"Habitat in Virginia, Cap. b. spei." RCN: 400.

Replaced synonym: Cyperus arundinaceus L. (1753) .

Replaced synonym of: Cyperus spathaceus L. (1767) , nom. illeg.

Lectotype (Kukkonen in Ann. Bot. Fenn. 27: 65. 1990): Herb. Linn. No. 70.39 ( LINN; iso- BM) .

Current name: Dulichium arundinaceum (L.) Britton ( Cyperaceae ).

Note: Linnaeus erroneously cites " Cyperus ferrugineus . Sp. pl. 44." in synonymy in the protologue. However, there is no C. ferrugineus on p. 44 of Species Plantarum, or indeed anywhere else in that work. The similarities of the phrase names, inclusion of the same three pre-1753 synonyms, and the same habitat statement show that C. arundinaceus is the name Linnaeus was intending.
