Abstract
The typification of the name Lavandula viridis (Labiatae) is revised. A “holotype” had previously been indicated by Upson and Andrews in 2004 from a specimen kept at the herbarium BM. However, the original material comprises more than one element. Therefore, a lectotype for this name is designated in this work according to the International Code of Nomenclature for algae, fungi, and plants (Shenzhen Code of 2018). The name is lectotypified using a specimen preserved at BM and collected by Francis Masson in Madeira in 1776.
