Cyperus difformis
Linnaeus
,
Centuria II Plantarum
: 6. 1756
.
"Habitat in India." RCN: 383.
Lectotype
(Tucker in
Syst. Bot. Monogr.
43: 50. 1994): Herb. Linn. No. 70.10 (
LINN
)
.
Current name:
Cyperus difformis
L.
(
Cyperaceae
).
Note:
Lye (in
Nordic J. Bot.
1: 57. 1981) stated that the type was in LINN but did not distinguish between sheets 70.10, 70.11 and 70.12. As they are evidently not part of a single gathering, Art. 9.15 does not apply.
