Orchis satyrioides Linnaeus, Amoenitates Academicae 6: 109. 1763, nom. illeg.

RCN: 6800.

Replaced synonym: Satyrium cornutum L. (1760).

Lectotype (Linder in J.S. African Bot. 47: 359, f. 9.1, 9.2. 1981): Herb. Burman (G).

Current name: Schizodium cornutum (L.) Schltr. (Orchidaceae).

Note: Linnaeus (Sp. Pl., ed. 2, 2: 1330. Jul 1763) transferred Satyrium cornutum L. (1760) to Orchis, coining the name O. biflora L. because of the existence of O. cornuta L. (1760). However, three months later (Oct 1763), Linnaeus published yet another name, O. satyrioides, as a replacement for S. cornutum, and O. satyrioides is therefore illegitimate.
