Taxonomic remark An illegitimate, superfluous name for Dianthus L. (GRIN). A homotypic synonym of Dianthus Linnaeus 1753 according to Index Nominum Genericorum. Madhani et al., 2018 (with type T. saxifraga Scop.) list this genus as a synonym of Petrorhagia (Ser.) Link., however that can be considered a later usage; in their text they state: "The confusion began as Haller (1742) described Tunica with the names Dianthus and Caryophyllus below it (probably as synonyms or equivalents). Without naming any species of Tunica, Ludwig (1757) applied this name beside Dianthus, making the former a synonym of the latter. Using the generic name Tunica, replacing Dianthus, was followed by Scopoli (1771) when he replaced even the type of Dianthus with a Tunica (as T. caryophyllus (L.) Scop.). Tunica was later used by several authors (e.g., Boissier, 1867) as a genus distinct from Dianthus; the genus in this usage is now treated as a synonym of Petrorhagia (for a detailed bibliography see Ball & Heywood, 1964)." This later usage is listed in Willis as a separate name instance, Tunica Mert. & Koch, the same presently followed in IRMNG. [details]
