Abstract
Arabis columnalis Nakai (1914: 271) was described by Nakai (1914) as endemic to Korea, based on a single gathering (T. Nakai 401) collected in Jirisan (Mt.) in South Korea (Fig. 1). In the protologue, Nakai (1914) mentioned that A. columnalis is different from A. perfoliata Lamarck (1783: 219) in having perennial roots of cylindrical shape. The latter binominal is a superfluous illegitimate name for Turritis glabra Linnaeus (1753: 666) (ICN Art. 11.3; McNeill et al. 2012) and hence is necessarily conspecific with T. glabra (Zhou et al. 2001, Warwick et al. 2006, Chang et al. 2014).
