Note: — We traced on sheet at PAL (code PAL 77156) including a single plant, and two handwritten labels by Vincenzo Tineo: one from “ Girgenti ” [now Agrigento city, S-Sicily] and the other from “ Terranova ” [now Gela town, S-Sicily] without date. As already done in other contributions (Nardi 1984, Domina & Mazzola 2007, Scafidi & Domina 2019), Tineo’s specimens in PAL, although not reporting the collection date, are presumptively considered original material. PAL 77156 was checked by C. A. Stace in November 1980, but it has not been used for nomenclatural acts by this author, as in our knowledge. PAL 77156 matches the protologue and corresponds to the current application of the name. This taxon has controversial interpretations. Some authors consider it an independent species (Bartolucci & al. 2018), others a subspecies of Vulpiella stipoides (Valdés & Scholz 2009), still others a synonym of V. stipoides (Stace 2022). The nomenclatural type designation can help specialists clarify its taxonomy.
