Tulipa breyniana Linnaeus , Species Plantarum 1: 306. 1753 View Cited Treatment .

"Habitat in Aethiopia." RCN: 2407.

Lectotype (Lewis in J. S. African Bot. 7: 59. 1941): [icon] " Sisyrinchium exphoeniceo suave rubente flore Aethiopicum " in Breyn, Exot. Pl. Cent.: 83, t. 36. 1678.

Current name: Homeria breyniana (L.) G.J. Lewis ( Iridaceae ).

Note: Lewis (in J. S. African Bot. 7: 59. 1941) formally chose the Breyn plate as the type, accepted it as belonging to what had been known as Homeria collina (Thunb.) Vent. , and made the combination H. breyniana (L.) G.J. Lewis for it. However, other authors, notably Goldblatt (in J. S. African Bot. 39: 139, f. 2. 1982), have been less certain of the identity of the type and appear to have informally rejected the name in favour of H. collina .
