Salvia urticifolia Linnaeus, Species Plantarum 1: 24. 1753.
"Habitat in Virginia." RCN: 187.
Lectotype (Epling in Repert. Spec. Nov. Regni Veg. Beih. 110: 58. 1939): Clayton 292 (BM-000042241).
Current name: Salvia urticifolia L. ( Lamiaceae).
Note: Epling (in J. Bot. 67: 6. 1929) noted the existence of a sheet in LINN, and treated a Clayton sheet as the standard (not the same as a type). However, he subsequently designated Clayton 292 as the type.
