Erysimum kurdicum Boiss. & Hausskn. in Boiss., Fl. Orient. Suppl.: 38. 1888.

Type: “Hab. in graminosis montium Schahu et Avroman Kurdistaniae Persicae 5–7000' (Haussk.!)”.

Holotypus: IRAN: “Montes Avroman et Schahu”, 5000'– 7000' [1520 – 2130 m], VII.1867, Haussknecht 78 (G-BOIS [G00154045]; iso-: B [B100068694], JE [JE00001844, JE00001845], P [P00531930], W [W0026700]) .

Notes. – Boissier based his description on a specimen in his own herbarium and listed an unnumbered collection of Haussknecht in the protologue.

POLATSCHEK (2011), who designated the W duplicate as the lectotype, did not annotate that collection but may have seen an image of it, and he considered all Haussknecht specimens from Schahu-Avroman as one collection regardless to whether unnumbered (B, JE [JE00001845], P), Haussknecht 72 (JE [JE00001844], W [W0026700]), or Haussknecht 78 (G-BOIS [G00154045]). Because the species description was based only on the G-BOIS specimen, there was no need for lectotypifying the name in the first place .
