A contribution to the typification of two endemic species of Salvia from Türkiye is presented. The names of S. smyrnaea Boiss. and S. eriophora Boiss. & Kotschy ex Boiss. are inadvertently lectotypified, and therefore, require second-step lectotypification. The designated lectotypes of S. smyrnaea and S. eriophora are housed at the Geneva herbarium from the Boissier collection.
