Abstract
In two recent publications (Villar et al. 2014, 2015), we made comments on 24 nomenclatural types in Tamarix Linnaeus (1753: 270). However we overlooked Schiman-Czeika’s (1964) Tamaricaceae treatment for the Flora Iranica, which included mention to all the types of the species recognized by the author. In fact, Schiman-Czeika (1964) always referenced a “type” to a concrete specimen, and then isotypes, if found, in different herbaria. According to the Melbourne Code (ICN, McNeill et al. 2012), most of those designations of type (Schiman-Czeika 1964) must be corrected to lectotype (Art. 9.9 of the ICN), and have priority (Art. 7.10 of the ICN) over later type designations in our previous publications or those taken as a base for them (Baum 1966, Qaiser 1981, Villar et al. 2014, 2015). As a consequence, 7 out of the 24 names treated in our two previous works on Tamarix types (Villar et al. 2014, 2015) need of corrections after considering the Schiman-Czeika’s type designations. As a result, seven lectotypes first designated by Schiman-Czeika (1964) are recovered here, and second step lectotypes are designated in four cases, according to Art. 9.17 of the ICN.
