Silene splendens Boiss., Fl. Orient. View in CoL 1: 631. 1867.

Lectotypus (designated here): Turkey. Prov. Phrygia: Ouchak , 15.VII.1857, Fl., Balansa 1312 ( G-BOIS [ G00330605 Fl. material]! ; isolecto-: BM [ BM000578616 ] image seen, G [ G00226582 ]!, JE [ JE00015717 ] image seen, K [ K000442511 ] image seen, MPU [ MPU 021862 ] image seen, P [ P05437211 , P05437212 , P05437213 ]!, US [ US00289354 ] image seen, W [ W1889-0016866 ]!, Z [ ZT00036389 ]!) ( Fig. 3 View Fig. 3 ) . Syntypus: Turkey. Prov. Phrygia: Ouchak , 17.VIII.1857, F r., Balansa 1312 ( G-BOIS [ G00330605 Fr. material]!; isosyn-: G [ G00226583 ]!, JE [ JE00015716 ] image seen, P [ P05437210 ]!).

Notes – A single collection was designated by Boissier (1867) in the protologue oF S. splendens (Balansa 1312) . This collection clearly corresponds to two gatherings, one (in flowers) collected on July 15 and a second (in Fruits) on August 17 ( Fig. 3 View Fig. 3 ). Ŋese two gatherings have been widely distributed with a single label indicating both flowering and Fruiting dates. We consider that the most complete material is in flower and thereFore designate the specimen mounted on the leFt oF the First sheet at G-BOIS as the lectotype ( Fig. 3 View Fig. 3 ). CareFul studies oF all material available allow separating the two gatherings in the relevant herbaria where the Fruiting material is designated as remaining syntypes.
