Popis: The previously overlooked name Croton moschatus Monteverde & P.Betancourt is here recognized for a Cuban endemic species on the basis that it was validly published and has priority over the heterotypic synonyms C. claraensis Urb. and C. sagranus Müll.Arg. In this work, a neotype for the name C. moschatus is designated and lectotypes are designated for C. claraensis and C. stenophyllus Griseb. var. rosmarinifolius Müll.Arg. We also comment on the confusion surrounding the uses of C. moschatus and other relevant historical aspects.
