"Habitat in Hispaniae maritimis lapidosis." RCN: 866. Type not designated. Original material: Herb. Linn. No. 129.8 ( LINN ) ; Herb. Clifford: 34, Galium 8 ( BM ) ; [icon] in Jussieu in Mem . Acad. Roy. Sci. Paris 1714: 380, t. 15. 1714. Current name: Galium saxatile L. ( Rubiaceae ). Note: Various authors have perceived nomenclatural problems with this name, chiefly because current usage does not agree with Linnaeus' original concept, which was apparently of a Spanish plant. Rauschert (in Feddes Repert. 79: 420. 1969), for example, treated it as a nomen ambiguum. The name, however, is in use.
