Misapplied names
- Linum liburnicum "Nyman, Consp. Fl. Eur.: 126. 1878." (Catalogue of Life, Plants of the World online)
  - Nyman cited Scop., Fl. Carniol., ed. 2, 1: 230. 1771 and obviously had no intention to create a new name. The name is synonymous with Linum corymbulosum.
- Cathartolinum corymbulosum (Rchb.) Rchb., Handb. Nat. Pfl.-Syst.: 307. 1837. (Plants of the World online)
  - Reichenbach gave Linum corymbulosum as basionym, the name is synonymous with this species.
- Linopsis corymbosa (Poepp.) Rchb., Handb. Nat. Pfl.-Syst.: 307. 1837. (Plants of the World online)
  - Reichenbach lists this taxon as "planta americana" and gives Poeppig as basionym author.
