Treatment

Prunus cerasus Linnaeus View in CoL , Species Plantarum 1: 474. 1753 View Cited Treatment .

"Habitat in Europa." RCN: 3631.

Type not designated.

Original material: Herb. Linn. No. 640.15? ( LINN) .

Current name: Prunus cerasus L. View in CoL ( Rosaceae ).

Note: Ghora & Panigrahi (in Nair, Fasc. Fl. India 18: 16. 1984) indicated 640.21 (LINN) as type, but although it is annotated “cerasus” by Linnaeus, it also carries the number “2” (associating it with P. virginiana L. ), and is evidently of North American origin (conflicting with Linnaeus’ "Habitat in Europa"). It does not appear to be original material for P. cerasus .
