Aloe vera [SEP] Taxonomy and etymology
The species has a number of synonyms: "A. barbadensis" Mill., "Aloe indica" Royle, "Aloe perfoliata" L. var. "vera" and "A. vulgaris" Lam. Common names include Chinese Aloe, Indian Aloe, True Aloe, Barbados Aloe, Burn Aloe, First Aid Plant. The species epithet "vera" means "true" or "genuine". Some literature identifies the white-spotted form of "Aloe vera" as "Aloe vera" var. "chinensis"; and it has been suggested that the spotted form of "Aloe vera" may be conspecific with "A. massawana". The species was first described by Carl Linnaeus in 1753 as "Aloe perfoliata" var. "vera", and was described again in 1768 by Nicolaas Laurens Burman as "Aloe vera" in "Flora Indica" on 6 April and by Philip Miller as "Aloe barbadensis" some ten days after Burman in the "Gardener's Dictionary".
