Type: “Hab. in monte Berytdagh Cataoniae alt. 6000'–8000' (Haussk!)”.

Lectotypus (designated here): TURKEY: “Taurus Cataonicus. Allischerdagh. Berytdagh”, 17.VIII.1865, Haussknecht s.n. ( G-BOIS [ G 00332353 ]; isolecto-: JE [ JE 00001886 , JE 00001887 ]) . Syntypi: TURKEY: “In gramin. m. Beryt dagh, Cataoniae & Allischerdagh”, 6000'–7000' [1830–2130 m], 8.VIII.1865, Haussknecht s.n. ( B [ B 100244956 ], BM [ BM 000583322 ], K [ K 000484896 ], P [ P 02272330 , P 02272332 ], W [ W 18890055600 , W 0075784 ]) ; “Taurus cataonicus. Beyritdagh”, 1865, Haussknecht s.n.

Notes. – The collection date on the lectotype is 17 August 1865, and DUDLEY (1965b) erred by giving the date as 8 July 1865, as on the duplicates at BM, K, and W that he cited and annotated. One of the syntypes, P02272331, was annotated by Boissier, though that sheet does not have the collection day and month.

All four duplicates at JE do not carry the date or month of collection. Of these, two have the collection number 1118, which was not given on any of the above duplicates, and have the mountain Allischerdagh indicated, as in the lectotype. These two duplicates are recognized here as isolectotypes .
