Papaver orientale
Linnaeus
,
Species Plantarum
1
: 508. 1753
.
"Habitat in Oriente." RCN: 3847.
Lectotype
(Goldblatt in
Ann. Missouri Bot. Gard.
61: 288. 1974): Herb. Linn. No. 669.10 (
LINN
)
see above, right.
Current name:
Papaver orientale
L.
(
Papaveraceae
).
Note:
Wijnands (
Bot. Commelins
: 160. 1983) incorrectly attributed typification using a Tournefort collection to
Cullen
(in Davis,
Fl. Turkey
1: 221. 1965), where it is unclear if a specimen is intended. A Tournefort collection would in any case not have been studied by Linnaeus and would not be original material for the name.
