Classification
Matricaria chamomilla L. (1753)
syn.:
- Matricaria recutita L. (1753)
- Chamomilla recutita (L.) Rauschert (1974)
There has long been a great confusion about the name, because the description and synonymy of Linnaeus in 1753 largely corresponds to Tripleurospermum maritimum subsp. inodorum (L.) Appleq. But Linnaeus himself altered the sense in 1755, and his herbarium sheet in Hortus Cliffortianus corresponds to this sense, and has been so typified. (Applequist, 2003)
