description

The name Portulaca macrantha (Maire) Ricceri & Arrigoni and its basionym, P. oleracea var. macrantha Maire, from Morocco, are lectotypified. Seed micromorphology demonstrates that the species is distinct from the closely related P. papillatostellulata and P. rausii. It does not occur in Italy.
