Note:
Duistermaat (in
Gorteria
, suppl., 3: 76, 80. 1996) noted that 964.1 (LINN) is identifiable as
A. tomentosum
Mill.
Subsequently, Duistermaat (2003) provided a detailed assessment of the identities of all available elements, designating a
Dodoens
plate as
lectotype
supported by an
epitype
(illustrated in
Gorteria
, suppl., 3: 77, f. 18.2. 1996).
