Treatment

Hesperis kotschyi Boiss., Diagn. Pl. View in CoL View at ENA Orient. ser. 2, 5: 21. 1856.

Type: “Hab. in praeruptis calcareis ad latus orientale montis Gisyl tepe Tauri Cilicici cl. Kotschy”.

Holotypus: TURKEY: “Iter Cilicicum in Tauri alpes ‘Bulgar Dagh.’ Loca praerupta in devexis orientalibus calcariis montis Gisyl Deppe”, 20.VII.1853, Kotschy 236g ( G-BOIS [ G00332211 ]; iso-: GOET [ GOET002616 View Materials ], KW [ KW000127978 ], P [ P00234974 , P02272569 ], W [ W0075692 ], WAG [ WAG0004247 View Materials ]) .

Notes. – It is certain that BOISSIER (1856) drafted the species description on the unicate in his herbarium alone and, therefore, it is safe to treat that unicate as the holotype.

Furthermore, he did not cite a collection number in that publication, though Boissier in Flora Orientalis listed Kotschy 256, an obvious typographical error for 236g, when he synonymized H. kotschyi under the later-published H. humilis (see below).
