Coreopsis reptans Linnaeus, Systema Naturae, ed. 10, 2: 1228. 1759.

["Habitat in America."] Sp. Pl., ed. 2, 2: 1281 (1763). RCN: 6562.

Lectotype (Moore in Fawcett & Rendle, Fl. Jamaica 7: 252. 1936): Browne, Herb. Linn. No. 1026.13 (LINN) .

Current name: Bidens reptans (L.) G. Don ( Asteraceae).

Note: Although some authors (e.g. Sherff in Publ. Field Mus. Nat. Hist., Bot. Ser. 16: 170. 1937) have treated the cited Sloane plate as the type, Moore’s choice of the Browne specimen appears to have priority.
