Alyssum huetii Boiss., Fl. View in CoL Orient. 1: 287. 1867.

Meniocus hirsutus Boiss. & A. Huet View in CoL in Boiss., Diagn. Pl. Orient. ser. 2, 5: 32. 1856.

Type: “Hab. in neglectis circâ Erzeroum cl. Huet du Pavillon in consortio M. linifolii ”.

Lectotypus (designated by DUDLEY,1965a: 192): TURKEY: “In neglectis prope Erzuroum”, 6000' [1830 m], VI.1853, Huet du Pavillon s.n. ( G-BOIS [ G00332416 ]; isolecto-: FI [ FI 010112], JE [ JE00003003 ], OXF, WAG [ WAG0004268 About WAG ]) . Syntypus: TURKEY: “Circà Erzeroum”, VII.1853, Huet du Pavillon s.n. ( BM [ BM000946181 ], G [ G00388935 , G00388936 , G00388937 ], K [ K000484972 ], P [02272288]) .

Notes. – Boissier in Flora Orientalis renamed the species in Alyssum , listed his Meniocus hirsutus in its synonymy, and cited the type of the latter and additional collections under Alyssum huetii . Obviously, he was aware of the earlier published A. hirsutum M. Bieb. (Fl. Taur.-Caucas. 2: 106. 1808) that prevented him from the transfer of Meniocus hirsutus to Alyssum .

All of the isolectotypes and syntypes cited above have printed labels indicating “Huet du Pavillon. Plantae Orientales exsiccatae. Circà Erzeroum. 1853 Armenia ” and the collection month (June or July) and the word “In neglectis” or “Inter segetes” were often added to collections of both months. The lectotype was collected in June, and the July collections (e.g., [BM000946181] and [K000484972]), are recognized as syntypes. The G00388935 duplicate has number 1240 indicated and no collection month.

DUDLEY (1965a) indicated that the holotype of M. hirsutus is Balansa 1252 at G, but this collection was never cited in the original protologue of this species.

The transfer of Alyssum huetii to Meniocus by HADAČ & CHRTEK (1973) is illegitimate and superfluous because of the existence of earlier published Meniocus hirsutus . Their combination has erroneously been accepted by ŠPANIEL et al. (2015).
