Andropogon hirtus Linnaeus View in CoL , Species Plantarum 2: 1046. 1753.

"Habitat in Lusitania, Sicilia, Smyrnae." RCN: 7556.

Lectotype (Clayton in Kew Bull., Addit. Ser. 2: 75. 1969): Herb. Burser I: 119 ( UPS) .

Current name: Hyparrhenia hirta (L.) Stapf View in CoL View at ENA ( Poaceae ).

Note: Specific epithet spelled “hirtum” in the protologue.

Although Kerguélen (in Lejeunia, n.s., 75: 196. 1975) stated "Type: …LINN”, this is not accepted as a formal typification, for the reasons explained by Cafferty & al. (in Taxon 49: 240. 2000). Romero Zarco (in Lagascalia 14: 122. 1986) subsequently chose 1211.15 (LINN) as lectotype but Clayton’s choice has priority. See López González (in Anales Jard. Bot. Madrid 51: 313. 1993), who discusses various aspects of the typification of this name.
