Cheiranthus sinuatus Linnaeus, Amoenitates Academicae 4: 487. 1759.

["Habitat in Hispaniae, Monspelii maritimis."] Sp. Pl., ed. 2, 2: 926 (1763). RCN: 4824.

Neotype (Jafri in Ali & Jafri, Fl. Libya 23: 149. 1977): Herb. Linn. No. 839.28 (LINN) .

Current name: Matthiola sinuata (L.) R. Br. ( Brassicaceae).

Note: Although cited by some authors as if first published in Sp. Pl., ed. 2, 2: 926 (1763), the name was in fact validated in the Amoen. Acad, reprint of Fl. Monspeliensis published in 1759, as noted by Stearn (in Geck & Pressler, Festschr. Claus Nissen: 637. 1974). The name is therefore validated solely by reference to a pre-Starting Point description from Magnol. As Magnol’s publication does not have an illustration of this plant, the type choice of 839.28 (LINN) as “type” by Jafri is accepted as a neotypification (Art. 9.8).
