Helleborus hyemalis Linnaeus, Species Plantarum 1: 557. 1753.

"Habitat in Lombardia, Italia, Apenninis." RCN: 4106.

Note: Although Riedl (in Rechinger, Fl. Iranica 171: 34. 1992) indicated unspecified material at LINN as type, this does not distinguish between sheets 718.1 and 718.2. As they are evidently not part of a single gathering, Art. 9.15 does not apply.
