The halophytic shrub genus Limoniastrum has recently been recircumscribed to include only two Mediterranean‐Saharan species, Limoniastrum monopetalum (L.) Boiss. (≡ Statice monopetala L.) and L. guyonianum Boiss. Protologues of both species are briefly discussed and lectotypes are designated using material at BM (Herb. Clifford) and G (Herb. Boissier).
