Gomphrena vermicularis Linnaeus , Species Plantarum 1: 224. 1753 View Cited Treatment .

"Habitat in Brasilia, Curassao." RCN: 1685.

Replaced synonym of: Illecebrum vermiculatum L. (1762) .

Type not designated.

Original material: [icon] in Hermann, Parad. Bat.: 15. 1698; [icon] in Plukenet, Phytographia: t. 75, f. 9. 1691; Almag. Bot.: 27. 1696.

Current name: Blutaparon vermiculare (L.) Mears ( Amaranthaceae ).

Note: Fawcett & Rendle (Fl. Jamaica 3: 141. 1914) indicated a type in LINN, but the only material that might be associated with this name (290.26) came from Browne and was a post-1753 addition to the herbarium, and is not original material for the name. Mears (in Taxon 29: 88. 1980) designated material in Herb. Sloane vol. 2, fol. 108 (BM-SL, which he erroneously believed to have been collected by Hermann), which Linnaeus never saw, as lectotype. Neither of these choices can be treated as a neotypification because original material is in existence.
