Current name: Rhinanthus crista-galli L. View in CoL ( Scrophulariaceae ).

Note: This name has been treated as a nomen ambiguum by many authors (see Sell in Watsonia 6: 301. 1967; Bullock in Kew Bull. 23: 265. 1969 etc.), with R. minor L. (1756) often taken up in its place. However, to date, R. crista-galli has not been formally proposed for rejection.
