Type: “Hab. in herbidis vallis Guzel Déré suprâ Sedichig in Ciliciâ littorali cl. Balansa. Fl. Junio Fruct. Sept.”. Lectotypus (designated here): TURKEY : “Bords herbeux du Guzel Déré, en amont de Sedi-chig (environs de Mersina )”, 9.VI.1855 , Balansa 170 ( G-BOIS [ G00332360 ]; isolecto-: BM [ BM000583306 ], E [ E00373076 ], G [ G00446157 ], GH [ GH00018478 , GH00018479 ], GOET [ GOET002681 ], JE [ JE00003052 ], K [ K000484900 , K000484901 , K000484902 ], MPU [MPU01473], OXF , P [ P02272250 , P02272251 , P04661347 ], US [ US00100410 ], WAG [ WAG0004262 ]) . Syntypus : TURKEY : “Bords du Guzel Déré, en amont de Sedi-chig (environs de Mersina )”, 2.X.1855 , Balansa 170 ( G-BOIS [ G00332360 fruiting branch]) . Notes. – The lectotype is a collection folder of two sheets the label of one of which was handwritten by Balansa with the field number 170 and Boissier’s initial handwritten determination as “Alyssum cremocarpum n. sp!”. The second sheet has a printed label with the collection number 435 and the same information as in the isolectotypes. The isolectotypes have a printed label with exsiccatae rather than field number: “Bords du Guzel-Déré, à 4 lieues au NO. de Mersina (Cilicie), 9 juin. 1855. B. Balansa 435”. There are three sheets in G-BOIS and two duplicates at G of the type collection. DUDLEY (1965b) indicated that the collection date is 9 September (instead of June 9) 1855, as in all the material he examined and annotated. Only a single fruiting material (third sheet in the lectotype folder) was examined from all the herbaria above, and it was collected on 2 October 1855 and recognized here as a syntype .
