Abstract

Silene fortunei Vis. (Caryophyllaceae), a species from Continental China and Taiwan, was originally invalidly published (De Visiani, 1847) and subsequently validated (Rohrbach, 1868), but then was a later homonym of Silene fortunei Hort. ex Regel (1863). It was also superfluous for Silene fissipetala Turcz. (1854) as their holotypes are isotypes of each other (McNeill et al., 2006, Art. 9 Note 2). A new varietal combination is proposed for Silene kiiruninsularis Masam.

中文摘要

產於臺灣及中國大陸的蠅子草(石竹科)其學名Silene fortunei Vis. 為不正當的出版 (De Visiani, 1847)。隨後雖經正當的出版 (Rohrbach, 1868),但此名又在Silene fortunei Hort. ex Regel (1863) 之後出現同名,且又是Silene fissipetala Turcz. (1854) 的一個多餘學名。此乃基於它們的全模式與複模式彼此重複之故 (McNeill et al., 2006, Art. 9 Note 2)。本文就基隆蠅子草(Silene kiiruninsularis Masam)提出一新的變種組合。
