"Habitat in America septentrionali; ad pyramides aegypti." RCN: 5827. Conserved type (Kilian in Taxon 43: 297. 1994): Egypt. "Kairo, in palmetis ad El Marg", 27 Apr 1908, Bornmueller 10830 (JE; iso- G, LD, LE). Current name: Launaea nudicaulis (L.) Hook. f. ( Asteraceae ). Note: Fernald & Schubert (in Rhodora 50: 176. 1948) noted that this was not an American plant, but the Mediterranean species Launaea nudicaulis (L.) Hook. f. Jeffrey (in Kew Bull. 18: 470. 1966) designated 951.6 (LINN) as lectotype but this collection turned out to be identifiable as Lactuca intybacea jacq. Kilian (in Taxon 41: 297. 1994) successfully proposed the conservation of the name with a conserved type in order to maintain its usage.
