Hypericum hircinum
Linnaeus
,
Species Plantarum
2
: 784. 1753
.
"Habitat in Sicilia, Calabria, Creta." RCN: 5747.
Lectotype
(Ramos
Nunez
in
Collect. Bot. (Barcelona)
15: 372. 1984): Herb. Linn. No. 943.16 (
LINN
)
.
Current name:
Hypericum hircinum
L.
(
Clusiaceae
).
Note:
Ramos
Nunez
(in
Collect. Bot. (Barcelona)
15: 372. 1984) wrongly attributed the choice of
lectotype
to Robson (in Davis,
Fl. Turkey
2: 372. 1967). However, Ramos
Nunez's
use of the term
lectotype
effects typification ahead of Robson (in
Bull. Brit. Mus. (Nat. Hist.), Bot.
12: 307, 310. 1985).
