Monarda ciliata
Linnaeus
,
Species Plantarum
1
: 23. 1753
.
"Habitat in Virginia." RCN: 180.
Lectotype
(Reveal in Jarvis & al. in
Taxon
50: 514. 2001):
Clayton 412
(BM-000051214).
Current name:
Blephilia ciliata
(L.) Raf.
(
Lamiaceae
).
Note:
Epling (in
J
.
Bot.
67: 5. 1929) discussed the original elements for the name, and treated
Clayton 412
(BM) as the "standard specimen" but this is not equivalent to a type statement (see Jarvis & al. in
Taxon
50: 508. 2001). However, this material does appear to be the obvious choice as type, and has been subsequently designated as such by Reveal.
