Abstract

The name Biscutella marinae is applied to an endemic plant from co-astal sand-dune ecosystems of northern Alicante. It however was not published accor-ding to the Melbourne Code, and therefore it still remains nomenclaturally invalid. In the present contribution it is validated, and new data are reported that complete the available information on that endemic.
