Scabiosa fumarioides Visiani & Pančić (1865: 466) ( Fig. 3 )

Lectotype (designated here):— SERBIA. In glareosis serpent[inaceis] ad Raška C [irculo] Čačkens [is]. Jul [io] [1]864. J. Pančić s.n. ( PAD barcode H0044651 !).

Additional specimens examined:— SERBIA. Raška, Jul[io] [1]864, J. Pančić s.n. ( BEOU 2367!).

Note:—The specimen selected here as the lectotype perfectly corresponds with the protologue and was clearly used to prepare the illustration in it. It consists of a full specimen and an envelope with detached fruits. The type bears two labels: one, by Visiani, with the provisional name “ Scabiosa myriotoma Vis. ”, and the other, by Pančić, with “ Scabiosa subachaeta nov. spec?.”, both later corrected by Visiani to S. fumarioides . The first provisional name (“ S. myriotoma ”) is found in Visiani’s manuscript for Visiani & Pančić (1865). The name is currently accepted ( Niketić 2014).
