Clementi, Moreno, Vukojičić, Snežana, Lakušić, Dmitar & Kuzmanović, Nevena, 2015, names published by Roberto de Visiani and Josif Pančić in Plantae Serbicae Rariores aut Novae-Decas I, Phytotaxa 202 (2), pp. 121-134 : 126

Dianthus papillosus Visiani & Pančić (1862: 436) .

Type (lectotype designated here):— SERBIA. In rupestrib[us] calcareis ad Mokra gora Serb[ia] Occid[entalis], August [1]861, J. Pančić s.n. (PAD-H0022789!) ( Fig. 4 )

Additional specimens examined:—[ SERBIA].s.l.,s.d., s.c. s.n. (PAD-H0016481!); SERBIA.Collib[us]serpentinaceis prope Raška C. Čačkensi, July, J. Pančić s.n. (BEOU 1514!).

Note:—The specimen selected here as lectotype fully corresponds with the protologue. The label, in Pančić’ s handwriting, bears the unpublished name “ Dianthus leucozonus ”, which appears also in Visiani’s original manuscript for Visiani & Pančić 1862, as a provisional name. This specimen was clearly used to make the illustration in the protologue. The additional specimen in PAD (PAD-H0016481) bears Reuter’s remark (“Me parait en effet distincte des nombreuses especes du groupe des sylvestris par les singulières papilles qui sont sur les petales et sur les feuilles!”, i.e. “it seems to me distinct from the many species of the sylvestris group by the particular papillae that are all over the petals and leaves”) and is therefore part of the original material. This taxon is generally treated as a synonym of Dianthus sylvestris Wulfen in Jacquin (1786: 237).
