Nomenclatural note. Veronica rosea is endemic to the Atlas Mountains and grows in various habitats there. Maire was concerned with the variability of V. rosea for a number of years. In 1929, Maire published a key to the five varieties and four subvarieties he recognized at that time. Maire’s herbarium is, therefore, important for documenting the diversity of the species and possible separation of taxa.
