Typification of the name Polygala flavescens DC. (Polygalaceae)

View through CrossRef
The present contribution is part of an ongoing work promoted by the Italian Botanical Society aimed to recognize and typify all the taxa described from Italy and their loci classici, in order to increase their systematic knowledge and promote further studies (Domina et al. 2012, Peruzzi et al. 2015, Brundu et al. 2017). One of these taxa is Polygala flavescens Candolle (1813: 134), an Italian endemic species that, according to Arrigoni (2014), includes three subspecies: P. flavescens DC. subsp. flavescens, P. flavescens DC. subsp. maremmana (Fiori in Fiori et al. 1908: 495) Arrigoni (2014: 251) and P. flavescens DC. subsp. pisaurensis (Caldesi 1879: 189) Arcangeli (1882: 68). To the best of our knowledge, the name Polygala flavescens was not yet typified.
