Centaurium littorale

[David Price]

As can be seen on this message board I have started editing those specimens which appear on H@H as Centaurium littorale but quite clearly are not that taxon.

My knowledge of the genus is not profound. I am relying on the known distribution of C. littorale, on the collectors' original determinations of the specimens and on comments made by fellow volunteers, I have started to rename as C. erythraea those specimens of "C. littorale" collected in VCc 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 10, 11, 13, 17, 19, 28, 30, 36, 38 and 113.

I suggest that the misnaming has no taxonomic significance but is due merely to a filing error.
