Chapter 7: Linnaean Plant Names and their Types (part P) Author Jarvis, Charlie Department of Botany, Natural History Museum, Cromwell Road, London, UK text 2007 Linnaean Society of London in association with the Natural History Museum London Order out of Chaos. Linnaean Plant Types and their Types 718 782 book chapter https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.291971 978-0-9506207-7-0 291971 Panicum italicum Linnaeus , Species Plantarum 1 : 56. 1753 . "Habitat in Indiis." RCN: 478. Lectotype (Veldkamp in Cafferty & al. in Taxon 49: 253. 2000): Herb. A. van Royen No. 912.356-242 ( L ) . Current name: Setaria italica (L.) P. Beauv. ( Poaceae ). Note: Although Kerguelen (in Lejeunia , n.s., 75: 259. 1975) stated "Type: ...LINN" , this is not accepted as a formal typification, for the reasons explained by Cafferty & al. (in Taxon 49: 240. 2000). Meikle ( Fl. Cyprus 2: 1860. 1985), Sherif & Siddiqi (in El-Gadi, Fl. Libya 145: 298. 1988), Pensiero & Judziewicz (in Goerts-van Rijn, Fl. Guianas , ser. A, 8: 585. 1990) and Veldkamp (in Blumea 39: 377. 1994) have all indicated material at LINN as type, but sheet 80.14 is a post-1753 addition to the herbarium, and therefore ineligible as original material. In the absence of other relevant material at LINN, Veldkamp designated a van Royen collection as lectotype .
