Abstract SALES, F. & I. C. HEDGE (2010). Three perplexing names of species of Campanula L. Candollea 65: 143–146. In English, English and French abstracts. The status of three “Oriental” names of species of Campanula L., Campanula asperrima Zuccagni, Campanula decurrens Zuccagni and Campanula ajugifolia Schult. is investigated. It is impossible to establish with any confidence the identity of the first two because there are no known type specimens and their protologues are imprecise. Campanula ajugifolia, was considered as an “incertae sedis“ and is here typified by a specimen in the Willdenow herbarium at Berlin. It is shown that Campanula ajugifolia is the earliest name for the Turkish endemic species currently known as Campanula argaea Boiss. & Balansa.
