Cistus salviifolius Linnaeus, Species Plantarum 1: 524. 1753.

"Habitat in Italia, Sicilia, Narbona." RCN: 3891.

Type not designated.

Original material: Herb. Clifford: 205, Cistus 5 (BM) ; Herb. Burser XXIV: 54 (UPS); [icon] in Clusius, Rar. Pl. Hist. 1: 70. 1601.

Current name: Cistus salviifolius L. ( Cistaceae).

Note: Specific epithet spelled “salvifolia” in the protologue. Jafri (in Jafri & El-Gadi, Fl. Libya 48: 8. 1977) indicated 689.11 (LINN) as type, but this collection was received from Alströmer long after 1753 so it cannot be original material for the name.
