Summary A list is provided of all the legitimate names available for application to subtribes, tribes, subfamilies, and segregate families of the Lamiaceae. The names Elsholtzieae, Prunelleae and Tetrachondraceae are formally validated. Also presented are earlier generically based names which are invalid or inoperative under Art. 35.2 of the Code. Correct names are provided for the familial subdivisions recognized in three widely accepted systematic treatments of the Lamiaceae. Action by the Sydney Congress that affects nomenclature of the subdivisions of families is discussed.
