Solidago caesia Linnaeus View in CoL , Species Plantarum 2: 879. 1753.

"Habitat in America septentrionali." RCN: 6352.

Lectotype (Uttal in Sida 10: 324. 1984): [icon] "Virga aurea Marilandica, caesia glabra" in Dillenius, Hort. Eltham. 2: 414, t. 307, f. 395. 1732. - Typotype: Herb. Dillenius No. 1848 ( OXF) .

Current name: Solidago caesia L. var. caesia View in CoL ( Asteraceae ).

Note: Gray (in Proc. Amer. Acad. Arts 17: 178. 1882), in a study of the Solidago material in the Linnaean herbarium, believed there to be no relevant specimens of S. caesia , concluding that the name is "founded on" the cited Dillenian illustration and associated material in OXF. Taylor & Taylor (in Sida 10: 228. 1984) indicated both this plate and 998.14 (LINN) as “type”, and Uttal (in Sida 10: 324. 1984) appears to have been the first to formalise a choice. Reveal & al. (in Huntia 7: 238. 1987) provide a concise summary.
