26. Epilobium tomentosum Vent., Descr. Pl. Nouv.: tab. 90. 1802.

Lectotypus (designated here): [IRAN]: Hort. Cels, Ventenat s.n. (G [G00406205]!; probable isolecto-: G-DC [G00654566]!).

= Epilobium hirsutum L.

Notes. – Two specimens of a single gathering have been located in Ventenat’s herbarium at G. It represents the plant cultivated in Cels’s garden. A collection in G-DC with the mention “h. Cels” may represents original material. We therefore prefer to designate here the lectotype on the unique collection extant in Ventenat’s herbarium.
