Lectotype(Jeanmonod in Gamisans & Jeanmonod, Compl. Prodr. Fl. Corse, AsteraceaeI: 190. 1998): Herb. Linn. No. 1113.2 ( LINN). - Epitype(Wisskirchen in Jarvis & Turland in Taxon47: 369. 1998): France. Perigord, rechtes Ufer der Dordogne bei Bezenac, 14 Sep 1987, Wisskirchen 230(BM-000576318; iso-BOCH).
Note: Loeve& Dansereau (in Canad. J. Bot.37: 174, f. 2. 1959) noted the material on sheet 1113.2 (LINN) as immature and evidently did not consider it as the type. However, Jeanmonod (in Compl. Prodr. Fl. Corse, AsteraceaeI: 190. 1998) treated 1132.2 (LINN) as the type, citing Loeve& Dansereau. This choice (before Mar 1998) pre-dates that of Wisskirchen (in Taxon47: 369. May 1998) but the latter'sadditional choice of an epitypestands. See discussion of the complex by Jeanmonod (in Candollea53: 446. 1998), who notes the epitypechoice. Wisskirchen ( Standardliste Farn-Bluetenpfl. Deutschl.: 550 (1998) gives a further review.
