This paper deals with Caryophyllaceae type material deposited in the herbarium of Museo de La Plata (LP), Argentina.

The analysis reveals 38 Caryophyllaceae type specimens, of which 15 are holotypes, 10 paratypes, 6 isotypes, 3 syntypes, 2 isolectotype, and 2 paralectotypes; the status and typification of 14 of them were defined or redefined as a consequence of the present study. The specimen of Arenaria achalensis GOET000561 is designated as lectotype. The list included the original names arranged alphabetically, the current names, the type category, the original citation according to the protologue, the locality mentioned in the original label, and additional observations, such as other herbaria where syntypes, lectotypes, isotypes, etc. are deposited.
