Abstract

Se revisa la tipificación del nombre de Linneo Thymus pulegioides (Lamiaceae). Este nombre fue previamente “lectotipificado” por Mártonfi en 1997 a partir de un espécimen conservado en el herbario LINN (Herb. Linnaeus No. 38.6). Sin embargo, Linneo citó un espécimen de Sauvages en el protólogo, en la actualidad conservado en LINN (Herb. Linnaeus No. 38.5). Por lo tanto, en la designación del lectotipo debe elegirse este espécimen de acuerdo con el Código Internacional de Nomenclatura para algas, hongos y plantas (Art. 9.12 del Código de Shenzhen de 2018).
