Khosravi et al. in Feddes Repert. 119: 21. 2008 . Notes. – The lectotype sheet (G-BOIS) has three labels, of which one (handwritten) gives the locality (Kuh-Barfi), flowering date (May 3), and the collection number (327) ; the other (also handwritten) gives the locality (Kuh-Delu), fruiting date (June 15), and collection number (523) ; and the third is printed and has the locality as Kuh-Delu, both flowering and fruiting dates above, and both collection numbers. It is the printed label that has been distributed often with both flowering and fruiting material. Because the fruit gives the most distinctive and distinguishing characters, the fruiting specimens are designated here as the lectotype collection. Plants in the flowering stage represent syntypes either distributed alone or mixed with the fruiting material. The lectotype has eight plants, of which only two (bottom right and left) are in fruit, and the remaining six are syntypes . Therefore, the initial lectotypification by AL-SHEHBAZ (2014) was incomplete because neither flowering nor fruiting material was selected.
