Salsola vermiculata Linnaeus View in CoL , Species Plantarum 1: 223. 1753 View Cited Treatment .

"Habitat in Hispania." RCN: 1829.

Lectotype (Jafri & Rateeb in Jafri & El-Gadi, Fl. Libya 58: 85. 1978): Herb. Linn. No. 315.19 ( LINN) .

Current name: Salsola vermiculata View in CoL . ( Chenopodiaceae ).

Note: Botschantzev (in Novosti Sist. Vyssh. Rast. 12: 176. 1975) indicated 315.20 (LINN) as the type. This sheet is annotated "vermiculata L[oefling] 200" by Linnaeus, and lacks the Species Plantarum number (i.e. “4”) that would ordinarily indicate a collection in Linnaeus’ possession in 1753. Linnaeus’ statement "Habitat in Hispania" was probably derived from the cited synonyms rather than this specimen, so the latter is not regarded as relevant original material. Jafri & Rateeb designated 315.19 (LINN) as type which, as it appears to be original material, is accepted here.
