Cerastium arvenseLinnaeus, Species Plantarum1: 438. 1753.
"Habitat in Scania & australiori Europa." RCN: 3400.
Lectotype(Ugborogho in Phyton( Buenos Aires) 35: 177, f. 4. 1977): Herb. Linn. No. 603.9 ( LINN).
Generitypeof CerastiumLinnaeus.
Note: Moeschl(in Mem. Soc. Brot.17: 24. 1964; Mitt. Naturwiss. Vereines Steiermark103: 147. 1973) indicated unspecified material in LINN as type but he did not distinguish between 603.9 and 603.10. These do not appear to be part of a single gathering so Art. 9.15 does not apply, and Ugborogho'schoice is the earliest valid typification.
