S. rosmarinifolia L. f. robusta Sennen & Pau

In Pau , Boletin de la Sociedad Aragonesa de Ciencias Naturales 6: 25. 1907 . — Type (as given in the protologue): “Bujedo (Sennen et Elías)”. — Lecto-, (designated here): “Castille: Bujedo, talus, VI.1906, Sennen & Elías s.n. ” (MA 126701).

REMARKS

Sennen & Pau in Pau (1907) published “ S. rosmarinifolia L. genuina Pau f. robusta Sennen & Pau ”, without rank for “ S. rosmarinifolia L. genuina Pau”. As previously explained, the ICBN rejects the use of the epithet “ genuina ”. Santolina rosmarinifolia L. f. robusta Sennen & Pau could be legitimate and treated as a nomen novum . The sheet (MA 126701) is the sole original material for this name. It has several flowering stems. Sennen labelled this specimen as “ S. rosmarinifolia ”. Pau, in an additional label, wrote: “var)α genuina fa robusta [underlined] S. et P.”

The specimens A 00251691, BC 30112, BM 000909706, G-BURNAT, MA 126699, MANCH, MPU (2 sheets), UCLA and W from “ Bujedo et Miranda, talus ” with the number “ N° 79 ”, gathered by Sennen and Elías on “ VI.1906 ”, are labelled as Santolina rosmarinifolia L. var. genuina . Another specimen from “ Bujedo, Miranda del Ebro ”, gathered by Elías on “ 26.VI.1906 ”, is deposited in MPU. These specimens show the characteristics listed in the protologue: “ Folia latiora et longiora, crassiuscula. Pl. Major ”.
