Distribution.

Spain, Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, and Libya ( Rosúa 1986).

Note.

The basionym was published by indelible autograph on specimen labels (Arts. 30.5-6 of the ICN, Turland et al. 2018, see also Galasso et al. 2018 for similar cases). Accordingly, all the duplicates of Rosmarinus lavandulaceus de Noé linked to n° 444 of the exsiccata series "Plantes d’Algérie”, preserved in several European herbaria, are syntypes and eligible for lectotypification. The type indicated by Rosúa (1986), although mounted on a sheet with a handwritten label different from those of series "Plantes d’Algérie” is also original material since it represents a fragment of one of the syntypes (see also Art. 8.3, Ex. 8 of the ICN).
