Anemone patens
Linnaeus
,
Species Plantarum
1
: 538. 1753
.
"Habitat in Toboliko Sibiriae, Lusatiae inferiore." RCN: 4000.
Lectotype
(Jonsell & Jarvis in
Nordic J. Bot.
14: 160. 1994): Herb. Burser IX: 93 (
UPS
)
.
Current name:
Anemone patens
L.
(
Ranunculaceae
).
Note:
Skalicky
(in
Preslia
25: 141. 1985) rejected the neotypification of Aichele & Schwegler (in
Feddes Repert
. 60: 72. 1957) and provided a detailed discussion of the protologue and original elements. He concluded that the Amman element and
Herb. Linn. 710.3 (
LINN
)
should be excluded, and suggested that a different
neotype
, either from northern Poland (cf. the Breyn element) or from Lausitz (the Bauhin element), should be designated. However, as original elements are in existence, a
neotype
cannot be chosen, and Jonsell &
Jarvis'
choice of the Burser material (which was not considered by
Skalicky
) as
lectotype
is accepted here.
