Hippocrepis multisiliquosa Linnaeus, Species Plantarum 2: 744. 1753.

"Habitat in Angliae, G. Narbonensis, Hispaniae, Italiae cretaceis." RCN: 5480.

Lectotype ( Domínguez in Lagascalia 5: 249. 1976): Herb. Linn. No. 919.3 (LINN) .

Current name: Hippocrepis multisiliquosa L. ( Fabaceae: Faboideae).

Note: Although Domínguez gave the sheet number of his chosen type as 919.2 (LINN), it is clear from his discussion that this was an error for 919.3 (LINN), subsequently confirmed by Talavera & Domínguez (in Anales Jard. Bot. Madrid 57: 455. 2000).
