Notes. – JAFRI (1973: 124) indicated that the type of Asperuginoides axillaris (as Buchingera) is Bunge’s collection from Isfahan. However, that specimen was collected ten years after the publication of the species name, though Bunge’s collection was cited in Flora Orientalis.

The JE isotype lacks the collection number, year, and collector, and it is a fragment annotated by Boissier and given to Haussknecht.
