Abstract

Specimens from Kermanshah Province (western Iran), which were identified as Silene vivianii in Flora Iranica, are reviewed and identified as S. oliveriana. A description and geographical distribution are presented. The name is lectotypified with a specimen preserved at G (Candolle’s collection).
