Remarks

EuroVegChecklist

pod07 | The name 'Rupicampanulion' was published in Rothmaler (1954: 599) with a bibliographical reference to two validly published associations, the Rupicampanuletum cantabricum Rothmaler 1941 and the Saxifragetum trifurcatae Rothmaler 1941, indicating the presence of two species of Campanula in both associations, namely C. adsurgens and C. arvatica. The name 'Petrocoptetum cantabricum' is a nomen nudum in Rothmaler (1941: 119). The use of the ecological prefix 'rupi' (pertaining to the rocky habitats) renders this name illegitimate according to ICPN art. 12, yet the name Rupicampanulion Rothmaler 1954 is validly published. The Rupicampanulion was considered to be a nomen dubium (Rivas-Martínez et al. 2011: 224), yet no reasoning for this suggestion was offered. (L. Mucina).
