Hesperis humilis Boiss., Fl. Orient. 1: 231. 1867 [nom. illeg.].

 Hesperis kotschyi Boiss., Diagn. Pl. Orient. ser. 2, 5: 21. 1856.

Type: see the following notes.

Notes. – Hesperis humilis is illegitimate because Boissier listed the earlier published H. kotschyi in synonymy.

By listing “ H. kotschyi Boiss. Diagn. Ser. II, V, p. 21 non Fenzl Pug.”, BOISSIER (1867a: 231) erroneously considered H. kotschyi a later homonym of H. kotschyana Fenzl (Pug. Pl. Nov. Syr. 13. 1842) and, therefore, proposed H. humilis as a replacing name.
