Linnaean Plant Types and their Types 696 717 book chapter https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.291971 978-0-9506207-7-0 291971 Ornithogalum minus Linnaeus , Mantissa Plantarum Altera : 364. 1771 . RCN: 2416. Type not designated. Original material: none traced. Current name: Ornithogalum umbellatum L. ( Liliaceae / Hyacinthaceae ). Note: See comments by Stearn (in Ann. Mus. Goulandris 6: 168. 1983). Van Raamsdonk (in Proc. Kon. Ned. Akad. Wetensch. C , 85: 565. 1982) wrongly treated this as a nomen nudum for, though very brief, Linnaeus' "simillimum praecedenti...sed huic petala acutiora" does provide a diagnosis.
