Sterigma brachypetalum Boiss. in Ann. Sci. Nat., Bot. ser. 2, 17: 386. 1842.

 Sterigmostemum sulphureum var. asperulum (Boiss.) Bornm. in Beih. Bot. Centralbl., Abt. 2, 27: 300. 1910.

Type: “[Aucher-Eloy] N. 4169 H, Persia australis”.

Lectotypus (designated by JACQUEMOUD, 1988: 105): IRAN: sine loco, s.d., Aucher-Eloy 4169 H (G-BOIS [G00332243]; isolecto-: G [G00440193], K [K000693702], P [P00741745, P00741746]) .

Note. – Lectotypification of the name by JACQUEMOUD (1988) is justified because Boissier annotated P00741746 as “ Sterigma brachypetalum ! Boiss.”. This indicates that Boissier based the species description on the unicates in G-BOIS and P (see BOISSIER, 1841a).
