Abstract:The name Artemisia anomala var. acuminatissima (Asteraceae-Anthemideae) was not validly published in 1992 because no type was indicated. The name was validated in 2011, so the validation in 2016 is superfluous. Correct citation of the name should be "Artemisia anomala var. acuminatissima Y. R. Ling, Bangladesh J. Plant Taxon. 18: 203. 2011", not "Artemisia anomala var. acuminatissima Y. R. Ling, Phytotaxa 273: 213. 2016".
