Description
Summary:The typification of the Linnaean name Iris pumila (Iridaceae) is discussed. Original material conserved in the Clifford Herbarium (BM), agreeing with the current usage of the name, is designated as the lectotype. An epitype is also designated in order to avoid any ambiguity in the taxonomic interpretation of the lectotype specimen and hence the application of the name. Citation: Boltenkov E.
