Centaurea lippii
Linnaeus
,
Species Plantarum
2
: 910. 1753
.
"Habitat in Aegypto inter Alexandriam & Rosette." RCN: 6581.
Type not designated.
Original material: [icon] in Isnard in
Mem
. Acad. Roy. Sci. Paris 1719: 169, t. 10. 1719.
Current name:
Volutaria lippii
(L.) Cass
, ex Maire (
Asteraceae

Note:
Although Jeffrey (in
Kew Bull.
22: 133. 1968) indicated
Herb. Linn. 1030.4 (
LINN
)
as the
holotype
, the sheet is not annotated with the
Species Plantarum
number (i.e.
"4"
), was a later addition to the herbarium and is not original material for the name. With the existence of other original material (the Isnard illustration),
Jeffrey's
statement cannot be treated as correctable to a neotypification (Art. 9.8).
