Orobanche uniflora Linnaeus , Species Plantarum 2: 633. 1753.

"Habitat in Virginia." RCN: 4594.

Lectotype (Reveal & al. in Huntia 7: 224. 1987): Clayton 387 [ “83”] (BM-000051200).

Current name: Orobanche uniflora L. ( Orobanchaceae ).

Note: Reveal & al. indicated "Clayton 83", a collection associated with Asclepias decumbens L. , as the lectotype of O. uniflora . However, it is clear that this is simply an error for "Clayton 387" as all other synonyms cited by Reveal & al. are associated with the latter collection.
