ABSTRACT Nomenclatural types for 26 names in the Boraginaceae genera Caccinia Savi, Cerinthe L., Cynoglossum L., Echium L., Lithospermum L., Myosotis L., Omphalodes Mill. and Onosma L., validly published by Italian botanists from Domenico Viviani to Adriano Fiori, are newly designated. Most of these names apply to taxa of the Eurasiatic flora which are accepted in the modern taxonomic and floristic literature. The new combinations Buglossoides incrassata (Guss.) I. M. Johnst. subsp. splitgerberi (Guss.) E. Zippel & Selvi and Omphalodes rupestris Rupr. ex Boiss. subsp. lojkae (Sommier & Levier) Selvi are proposed, and the new species Myosotis graui Selvi, previously known under the misapplied name M. ambigens (Bég.) Grau, is described.
