Plantago amplexicaulis Cavanilles (1793: 22) Miscellaneous typifications of selected species occurring in Calabria (S Italy) Peruzzi, Lorenzo Phytotaxa 2014 2014-09-10 178 1 50 52 4JL97 Cavanilles (1793: 22) Cavanilles 22 1793 [136,661,157,184] Magnoliopsida Plantaginaceae Plantago Plantae Lamiales 1 51 Tracheophyta species amplexicaulis  Type ( lectotype, designated here):—[icon]: Icon. Desc. Pl. 2: tab. 125. 1793.  Cavanilles (1793)described this species from the Sagunto area of Spain(“Habitat in Saguntinae arcis vetustissimo muro”). The iconography is original material for the name and perfectly depicts all of the morphological details of this species. Iwas not able to trace further original materials. For this reason the iconography is selected as the lectotype. The lectotypeconfirms the current application of the name (e.g. Chater & Cartier1976, Pignatti 1982).
