Lectotype (designated here by Gottschlich): — GERMANY.

Thuringia: Berghänge im Loquitzgrund unter Probstzella, Tonschiefer , 11 July 1930, H. Schack ( B barcode B 10 0088081!); GERMANY. Thuringia: Felsen des Loquitztales unterhalb Probstzella, 10 July 1930, J. Bornmüller ( B barcodes B 10 0088078!, B 10 0088079!, JE barcodes JE00009175 [image!], JE00009176 [image!]).—Current name: Hieracium laevigatum subsp. pseudocharrieri Zahn in Schack (1933: 96).

Remarks: —The situation is somewhat complicated: In the protologue Schack indicates the collection date “ 11.7.1930 ”, the collector “B.” [= Bornmüller], and “!!” which means that he personally studied plants from the type locality. However, the coresponding herbarium specimens with Zahn´s handwritten determination were collected by Bornmüller on 10 July 1930 (B 10 0088078, B 10 0088079, JE00009175, JE00009176) and by Schack (B 10 0088081). Only “B 10 0088080” has a label with a stamp “Herbarium Bornmüller”, but this label is written by Schack and no collector is explicitly mentioned. Nontheless we selected this specimen as lectotype because it corresponds best to the protologue. Bornmüller´s comment on specimen “B 10 0088079”: “Nach Ver i ffentlichung der Diagnose ist nachzuprüfen, ob nicht etwa eine Zettelverwechslung (Typus u. var.) vorliegt” [After publication of the diagnosis it had to be checked, whether there hase been a mix-up of the labels] can no longer be verified.
