Valantia articulata
Linnaeus
,
Species Plantarum
2
: 1052. 1753
.
"Habitat in Aegypto, Syria." RCN: 7601.
Type not designated.
Original material:
Herb. Linn. No. 1219.8 (
LINN
)
.
Current name:
Valantia articulata
L.
(
Rubiaceae
).
Note:
The collection (1219.10 LINN) which was designated as the type by Jelenevsky & Kuranova (in
Novosti Sist. Vyssh. Rast.
32: 160. 2000) lacks the relevant
Species Plantarum
number (i.e.
"3"
), and is apparently a post-1753 addition to the collection, and not original material for the name.
