Lectotypes, neotypes and epitypes are designated by 20 specialists for 45 previously untypified Linnaean plant names belonging to the family Caryophyllaceae . These newly proposed types support the current usage of the names concerned. Earlier but ineffective or supersedable type statements are discussed.
