Mollugo verticillata Linnaeus, Species Plantarum 1: 89. 1753.

“Habitat in Africa, Virginia.” RCN: 747.

Lectotype (Reveal & al. in Huntia 7: 212. 1987): Herb. Linn. No. 112.4 (LINN).

Generitype of Mollugo Linnaeus (vide Hitchcock, Prop. Brit. Bot.: 122. 1929).

Current name: Mollugo verticillata L. (Molluginaceae).

Note: Fawcett & Rendle ( Fl. Jamaica 3: 165. 1914) indicated material in LINN as type, but as there are three sheets associated with the name (and they are evidently not part of a single gathering), this is not an effective typification.
