Zusammenfassung:The sample from the Arnold's Lichenes Exsiccati no 989: Physcia aurantia, deposited in M, is designated to serve as neotype of Caloplaca aurantia. The sample appears to be a topotype of C. aurantia. An overview is presented of the complicated history of the application and misuse of the name. Old literature references to C. aurantia should be confirmed by herbarium material, since the species was often confused with C. flavescens.
