Notes.

The description of D. aconiti is based on a Forsskål’s gathering made "in Dardanella". At LINN, no Forsskål’s material was found for this taxon, whereas two gatherings, Forsskål 913 (C10001572) and Forsskål 914 (C10001573), are deposited at C, in the Vahl herbarium, and are likely to correspond to the type material. The typification of the Forsskål collection is complex and needs a careful examination of the letters sent by Forsskål to Linnaeus. Note that Forsskål 914 was a priori used for the tab XIII ( Vahl 1790).
