Note.

Clos’ (1849) description of Eritrichium capituliflorum includes a direct reference to a collection made by Claude Gay in Coquimbo, Chile. Two duplicates of the collection involved are found at P in agreement with the diagnosis and cited locality as referred to by Clos in the protologue. In this context, the duplicate P00606749 is here selected as lectotype of the name.
