Urtica dioica subsp. dioica Linnaeus 1753
1. <i>Urtica dioica</i> Linnaeus (1753: 984) subsp. <i>dioica</i>. <p> Lectotype (designated by Woodland, 1982: 283): <i>anon., Herb. Linnaeus 1111.8</i> (LINN!, photographs: AUB, DAO, MTMG). — Fig. 1 A.</p> <p> <i>Urtica dioica</i> subsp. <i>dioica</i> is a widespread nitrophilous weed, common throughout Europe, western Asia, northern Africa and eastern North America. It is also found on several islands in the North Atlantic (e.g., Iceland). The typical subspecies is here reported for the first time from South America, probably from introduced populations. It can be readily differentiated from the native species by its very dense pubescence of stinging hairs on the abaxial leaf veins, its usually much wider and more triangular leaves (in the weedy form found in South America) and its predominantly dioecious populations. Numerous monoecious individuals of <i>U. dioica</i> subsp. <i>dioica</i> have been reported, but these always make up only individual clones in a population, with the bulk of individuals unisexual (Heemskerk <i>et al.</i> 1998). So far, monoecious individuals have not been reported from South America. <i>Urtica dioica</i> subsp. <i>dioica</i> is likely much more common in southern South America than is reflected by the number of specimens studied, as botanists may refrain from collecting it, recognizing it as an introduced weed. It is likely to be locally common in pastures and on road sides in southern and central Chile and Argentina.</p> <p> <b>Representative specimens:</b> <b>ARGENTINA</b>: <b>Prov. Córdoba</b>, Depto.

Nomenclatural Revision of Heliotropiaceae Names Linked to Southern Cone Taxa
During the preparation of the treatment of the family Heliotropiaceae for Argentina, several names were identified as needing typification to stabilize their nomenclature. As a result, lectotypes are designated for six names (Heliophytum anchusifolium (Poir.) DC. var. angustifolium DC., Heliotropium claussenii A. DC. f. robustior Chodat, H. inundatum Sw. f. elliptica Chodat & Hassl., H. margaritense Hassl. ex I. M. Johnst., H. salicoides Cham., and Tournefortia elegans Cham.) and second-step lectotypes for two names (Heliotropium andinum Rusby and H. maximum Chodat & Hassl.). Furthermore, remarks on types of three names (Heliotropium chrysanthum Phil., H. rugosum Phil., and T. paniculata Cham.) are provided.Fil: Moroni, Pablo Daniel.
