The Linnaean names in Statice (Plumbaginaceae)

The Linnaean names Statice aurea, S. cordata, S. flexuosa, S. incana, S. pruinosa, and S. speciosa (Plumbaginaceae) are investigated. Specimens from the Linnaean Herbarium (LINN) are designated as lectotypes of S. aurea, S. flexuosa, S. pruinosa and S. speciosa, and an illustration is designated as lectotype for S. cordata. Finally, the typification of the remaining Linnaean names in Statice is briefly reviewed and discussed.
