Summary Turland, N. J.: Neotypification of Acer orientale (Aceraceae) . – Taxon 44: 597‐600. 1995. – ISSN 0040‐0262. A specimen belonging to the Turkish Acer monspessulanum subsp. oksalianum Yalt. is designated as the neotype of the ambiguous name A. orientale L. The latter name has been applied to another eastern Mediterranean taxon which since 1967 has been known by the slightly later name A. sempervirens L. This action stabilizes this current usage.
