Hieracium sprengerianum Linnaeus View in CoL , Species Plantarum 2: 804. 1753.

"Habitat in Lusitania." RCN: 5874.

Lectotype (Alavi in Jafri & El-Gadi, Fl. Libya 107: 359. 1983): Herb. Linn. No. 954.44 ( LINN) .

Current name: Hieracium View in CoL sp. ( Asteraceae ).

Note: Greuter (in Willdenowia 33: 235. 2003) notes that Schultz Bipontinus annotated the type material as identifiable as H. virosum Pall , and that if, as he suspects, closer scrutiny confirmed this, H. sprengerianum , unless it is formally rejected, threatens to displace H. virosum , a well-known name of a widespread Asian and SE European species.
