Treatment

Croton tinctorius Linnaeus View in CoL , Species Plantarum 2: 1004. 1753.

"Habitat Monspelii." RCN: 7272.

Lectotype (Radcliffe-Smith in Nasir & Ali, Fl. Pakistan 172: 50. 1986): Löfling s.n., Herb. Linn. No. 1140.5 ( LINN) .

Current name: Chrozophora tinctoria (L.) A. Juss. View in CoL ( Euphorbiaceae ).

Note: Specific epithet spelled “tinctorium” in the protologue.

Prain (in Bull. Misc. Inform. Kew 1918: 49. 1918) discusses this name and gives (pp. 50-53) an exhaustive account of the pre-Linnaean literature. Radcliffe-Smith (in Meikle, Fl. Cyprus 2: 1450. 1985) indicated a type at LINN but did not distinguish between sheets 1140.5 and 1140.6. As they are evidently not part of a single gathering, Art. 9.15 does not apply.
