Typification of the 13 validly published, pre‐1958 names of Helichrysum taxa based on Sicilian material is reassessed. Five of the types designated by Galbany‐Casals & al. in their recent studies are confirmed (in some cases with additional precision), two neotypes proposed by them are superseded by lectotypes, and six lectotypes are newly designated. The correct name of the species known as H. rupestre , an illegitimate name, is H. panormitanum (or, if taken in a wide sense, H. pendulum ).
