scientific name

Pharus latifolius L.
status

 

Pharus resupinatus Linnaeus , Flora Jamaicensis: 21. 1759.

"Habitat [in Jamaica.]"

Type not designated.

Original material: [icon] in Browne, Civ. Nat. Hist. Jamaica: 344, t. 38, f. 3. 1756.

Current name: Pharus latifolius L. ( Poaceae ).

Note: Pharus latifolius was published in May–June 1759 and therefore pre-dates P. resupinatus L. (Dec 1759) . The latter appears to have been coined in error, for although Linnaeus included it in the reprint of Fl. Jamaicensis (in Amoen. Acad. 5: 382. 1759), he subsequently omitted it from Sp. Pl., ed. 2, 2: 1408 (1763), referring only to P. latifolius . However, as P resupinatus was not based on exactly the same elements as P. latifolius , it is a heterotypic synonym of the earlier name, rather than illegitimate and homotypic with it.
