Resurrection and typification of Elatine campylosperma (Elatinaceae), a long-forgotten waterwort species

The name Elatine campylosperma Seub. is generally treated as one of the synonyms of E. macropoda Guss. However, recent morphological, phylogenetic and karyological studies indicate that this judgement should be revised. In the present paper we typify the name E. campylosperma, review its taxonomic h...
