Orobanche santolinae Loscos & J. Pardo, which is frequently considered a synonym of O. artemisiae–campestris or O. picridis , is lectotypified here from Loscos's original material in the herbarium of the Botany Department of the University of Coimbra (COI). A morphological description focusing on the particular characters which distinguish it from related species is provided. Orobanche santolinae occurs in western areas of the European Mediterranean region (viz., east and south of the Iberian Peninsula and south–west of France), it is considered to belong to the O. minor group and warrant recognition at species level.
