15. Hieracium murorum [subsp. pseudomerianum] var. oblongiforme P.Rossi & Zahn in Zahn (1934: 482)

Ind. loc.:—“Alpen von Lecco: Val Ontragno; Croce di Brentalon! Kärnten: Windische Höhe bei Matschiedl 1100 m ”.

Type:—[ ITALY, Lombardy, Prov. LC] “ Lungo il lato sin. della Valle Ontragno appena oltrepassato il torrente per salire all’Alpe, 16 Aug 1919, P. Rossi ” (lectotype, designated here: PAV barcode PAV-LOM014309 ) .

Remarks:— Three specimens were found in PAV.Unfortunately,two of them(PAV-LOM014307;PAV-LOM014306) are lacking labels. On the other hand, one specimen (PAV-LOM014309) is very well preserved, and it bears two labels. The first one was written by P. Rossi, with a collection date and locality. The second label was handwritten by Zahn, and it bears his identification of the subspecies with a short description. Characters of the specimens and description match with the protologue of the variety. For these reasons we can consider this specimen as a lectotype of the name H. murorum var. oblongiforme .

Current name:— Hieracium tenuiflorum .
