Note:
Gray (in
Proc. Amer. Acad. Arts
17: 178. 1882) noted the identity of the cited Tournefort element, but did not designate a type. McVaugh (in
Contr. Univ. Michigan Herb.
9: 366. 1972) discussed 998.13 (LINN) and noted that it resembled
S. sempervirens
but did not indicate it as type. Although Taylor & Taylor did not provide a sheet number for their type choice, there is only one sheet associated with this name in LINN.
