Jarvis, Charlie, 2007, Chapter 7: Linnaean Plant Names and their Types (part G), Order out of Chaos. Linnaean Plant Types and their Types, London: Linnaean Society of London in association with the Natural History Museum, pp. 529-556 : 546

Gnaphalium decurrens Linnaeus , Systema Naturae, ed. 10, 2: 1211. 1759.

RCN: 6239.

Type not designated.

Original material: none traced.

Note: Although Hilliard & Burtt (in Bot. J. Linn. Soc. 82: 241. 1981) took the view that this is the basionym of Conyza decurrens L. (1763) , there is no direct link between the protologues of these two names. Conyza decurrens L. (1763) is a new name, and the basionym of Neojefjreya decurrens (L.) Cabrera.
