"Habitat in Jamaica." RCN: 132.

Basionym: Lysimachia monnieri L. (1756) .

Neotype (Cramer in Dassanayake & Fosberg, Revised Handb. Fl. Ceylon 3: 42. 1981): [icon] " Moniera minima repens, foliis subrotundis, floribus singularibus alaribus " in Browne, Civ. Nat. Hist. Jamaica: 269, 28, f. 3. 1756.

Current name: Bacopa monnieri (L.) Pennell ( Scrophulariaceae ).

Note: This has been variously treated as either an orthographic variant of G. monnieri (L.) L. (1759) , or an independent name. However, the former seems more appropriate, making the name homotypic with G. monnieri (L.) L. and its basionym Lysimachia monnieri L. (1756) .
