Scabiosa macedonica var. indivisa Vis. View in CoL in Visiani & Pančić (1870: 12), nom. inval.
Note:—The name is invalid for two reasons. Firstly, from the synonymies listed in the protologue, it is clear that this variety is meant to comprise the type of the species, but it does not comply with the provisions of Art. 26 (McNeil et al. 2012). Secondly, it is only intended as a provisional name, to be adopted “in case [ Scabiosa macedonica var. lyrophylla (Pančić) Vis. & Pančić ] could not be distinguished as a separate species” from Knautia macedonica Grisebach (1846: 178) (“ni sufficeret ad hasce plantas specifice distinguendas”). This strange sentence is explained by taking the fact that, as is clear from their correspondence, Visiani and Pančić considered their plant as a probably separate species (“ Knautia lyrophylla ”) from at least 1861 and almost up to the publication of Visiani & Pančić (1870). As already mentioned, they changed their mind on the appropriate rank for this taxon after seeing a specimen by Friedrichstahl in W, but they failed to remove this now useless section from their work.
