Delphinium ajacis Linnaeus View in CoL , Species Plantarum 1: 531. 1753 View Cited Treatment .

“Habitat– - - –” RCN: 3946.

Lectotype (Molero & Blanché in Anales Jard. Bot. Madrid 41: 217. 1984): Herb. Burser VII (1): 83 ( UPS) , see p. 197.

Current name: Consolida ajacis (L.) Schur View in CoL ( Ranunculaceae ).

Note: Wilmott (in J. Bot. 80: 17. 1942) identified material in LINN and the Clifford herbarium (BM) as D. orientale Gay ( Consolida orientalis (Gay) Schrödinger). Keener (in Castanea 41: 15. 1976) reported that Wilmott had concluded that the name was typified by a Clifford sheet, quoting J.E. Dandy as saying that European botanists had generally rejected D. ajacis as a nomen ambiguum, taking up D. ambiguum L. ( C. ambigua (L.) P.W. Ball & Heywood ) as the name for the garden larkspur. However, no formal typification was made until Molero & Blanché designated a Burser collection, overlooked by earlier workers, as the lectotype, and again took up C. ajacis .
