"Habitat in Hispania." RCN: 2375.
Lectotype
(Nordenstam in
Taxon

"Moly caule & foliis triangularibus"
in Parkinson, Parad. Sole Parad. Terr.: 142, 143, f 6. 1629 (seep. 145).
Current name:
Allium triquetrum

Note:
De Wilde-Duyfjes (in
Taxon
22: 86. 1973) incorrectly designated a post-1753
Aistroemer
collection (419.3 LINN) as
lectotype
, and Nordenstam (in
Taxon
27: 372. 1978) rejected it in favour of the cited Parkinson plate. However, it seems there may be some disagreement as to its taxonomic identity; Pastor &
Valdes
(in
Revis. Gen.
Allium
Penins. Iber. Islas Baleares
: 141. 1983) question whether it represents
A. triquetrum
.
