Notes from Flann et al. 2010 Taxon 59: Type - (designated by Pfeiffer, 1871-1875, 1: 1006. 1873): D. cernua Cass. (Xeranthemum variegatum [sensu?] L. 1767, non P. J. Bergius Sep 1767) [= Syncarpha vestita (L.) B. Nord., Xeranthemum vestitum L. Notes: As explained by Jarvis (2007), Xeranthemum variegatum L. might well be considered an isonym of X. variegatum P. J. Bergius rather than its illegitimate later homonym. However, it is not certain that they are the same species: Jarvis (2007) claims that X. variegatum L., of which no type exists (!), is the same as Syncarpha vestita (L.) B. Nord., and Nordenstam (1989) treats X. variegatum P. J. Bergius as a separate species, S. variegata (P. J. Bergius) B. Nord. At any rate, we do not consider Cassini’s reference to Linnaeus as resulting in the inclusion of Bergius’s type, because Linnaeus did not refer to Bergius, and we therefore treat D. cernua as a legitimate name. Damironia is subsequently (in Cuvier, Dict. Sci. Nat. 60: 588. 1830) considered by Cassini himself as a synonym of the heterotypic Astelma R. Br. ex Ker-Gawl. 1821.
