: 863. 1753
.
"Habitat in America australi." RCN: 6247.
Lectotype
(
D'Arcy
in Woodson & Schery in
Ann. Missouri Bot. Gard.
62: 1021. 1975): Herb. Linn. No. 994.11 (
LINN
)
.
Current name:
Conyza bonariensis
(L.) Cronquist
(
Asteraceae
).
Note:
Specific epithet spelled
"bonariense"
in the protologue.
Although Blake (in
Contr. Gray Herb.
52: 27. 1917) suggested that the name was based on the cited Dillenian plate, this is insufficiently explicit to accept as formal typification. Burtt (in
Kew Bull.
3: 369. 1948) provided an extensive discussion of the name but did not designate a type.
