Treatment

Aster polifolius Linnaeus View in CoL , Species Plantarum, ed. 2, 2: 1224. 1763.

"Habitat ad Cap. b. Spei. Burmannus." RCN: 6394.

Replaced synonym of: Inula caerulea L. (1771) , nom. illeg.

Type not designated.

Original material: Herb. Linn. No. 997.57 ( LINN) .

Current name: Printzia polifolia (L.) Hutch. View in CoL View at ENA ( Asteraceae ).

Note: Bullock (in Kew Bull. 3: 54. 1948) discussed this name in detail and clearly regarded a sheet at LINN as "the Linnean type". However, his text does not distinguish between sheets 997.56 and 997.57, which are evidently not part of a single gathering (so Art. 9.15 does not apply). Kroner (in Mitt. Bot. Staatssamml. München 16: 111. 1980) explicitly treated sheet 997.56 as the lectotype, but it is a Tulbagh collection, sent to Linnaeus only in 1769 and which cannot therefore have been original material for the name.
