Orobus luteus Linnaeus, Species Plantarum 2: 728. 1753.

"Habitat in Sibiria." RCN: 5378.

Type not designated.

Original material: Herb. Linn. No. 904.2 (LINN) .

Current name: Lathyrus ochraceus Kitt. ( Fabaceae: Faboideae).

Note: Bässler (in Feddes Repert. 84: 354. 1973) describes Linnaeus’ changing concept of the species, from Siberian in 1753, taking in European forms in 1763, and relegating the Siberian plant to an unnamed variety in 1771. He treats the Linnaean name as a synonym of L. gmelinii Fritsch.
