Orchis mascula (Linnaeus) Linnaeus, Flora Suecica, ed. 2: 310. 1755.

Basionym: Orchis morio var. mascula L. (1753) .

Lectotype (Baumann & al. in Mitteilungsbl. Arbeitskr. Heim. Orchid. Baden-Württemberg 21: 530, Abb. 38. 1989): [icon] "Testiculi species IIII" in Mattioli, Pl. Epit.: 624. 1586.

Current name: Orchis mascula (L.) L. ( Orchidaceae).

Note: Baumann & al. (in Mitteilungsbl. Arbeitskr. Heim. Orchid. Baden-Württemberg 21: 518, Abb. 34. 1989) wrongly treated this as a new name, rather than a new combination based on O. morio var. mascula L. (1753), and designated 1054.19 (LINN) as lectotype. However, O. mascula is homotypic with O. morio var. mascula, which is typified by a Mattioli plate.
