Hooker 11</i> deposited in K (K000742193) was designated as the lectotype of its type species <i>S. glanduligera</i> (Edgew.) Pusalkar & D.K. Singh (≡ <i>Arenaria glanduligera</i> Edgew.). Nevertheless, <i>J.D. Hooker 11</i> (K000742193) is actually the type of <i>S. ciliolata</i> (Edgew.) Pusalkar & D.K. Singh (≡ <i>Arenaria ciliolata</i> Edgew.). Thus the lectotypification of <i>S. glanduligera</i> was problematic and a re-lectotypification for this species is needed. One of the syntypes of <i>S. glanduligera</i> collected from Kashmir (<i>H. Falconer s.n.</i>, K000742189) is selected here as its lectotype.
