Convolvulus alsinoides
Linnaeus
,
Species Plantarum
1
: 157. 1753
.
"Habitat in Malabaria, Zeylona, Bisnagaria, Bahama." RCN: 2177.
Basionym of:
Evolvulus alsinoides
(L.) L. (1762)
.
Lectotype
(Verdcourt in Hubbard & Milne-Redhead,
Fl. Trop. E. Africa,
Convolvulaceae
: 18. 1963): Herb. Hermann 3: 55, No. 76 (BM-000628009)
.
Current name:
Evolvulus alsinoides
(L.) L.
(
Convolvulaceae
).
Note:
Ooststroom (in
Meded. Bot. Mus. Herb. Rijks Univ. Utrecht
14: 28. 1934) indicated material in LINN (presumably 393.3) as
"type"
. However, this was a post-1753 addition to the herbarium and is ineligible as the type. Stearn (in
Taxon
21: 649. 1972) gives a detailed appraisal of the typification.
