Note: Jeffrey (in Kew Bull. 34: 457. 1980) indicated 436.4 (LINN) as lectotype but this collection is associated with C. multiflora L. and is not original material for C. verticillata . Ali (in Ali & Qaiser, Fl. Pakistan 213: 8. 2005) indicated 436.2 (LINN) as the type but as this choice was published after 1 Jan 2001, the omission of the phrase "designated here" or an equivalent (Art. 7.11) means that the choice is not effective.
