Gassies 1856 : 12, figs 11-12. Type locality. "Dans l'Oued-Lisser , sur la route de Sidi-bel-Abess, a Tlemcen" [in the Oued Lisser (?), on the road to Sidi Bel Abbes , at Tlemcen], Algeria. Remarks. Bourguignat (1884) attributed the authority to himself, but even listed Gassies' record in synonymy. Apparently, he did not consider a variety as a valid name that can result in homonymy (see also the introduction).
