Phagnalon quartinianum Richard (1847: 396) View in CoL

Type:—[ ETHIOPIA.] Abyssinie Vallée du Mareub, s.d., Quartin-Dillon & Petit s.n. (lectotype: P barcode P033897 [digital image!], designated here; isolectotypes: P barcodes P033898 and P033899 [digital images!]) .

(Image available at: https://science.mnhn.fr/institution/mnhn/collection/p/item/p033897).

Notes:— The locality indicated in the original description is as follows: “Crescit in rupibus convallis fluvii Mareub, mense Octobre florens (Quartin Dillon)”. Qaiser & Lack (1986b: 446) cited a specimen kept at P as the holotype without indicating a herbarium number. We found three specimens corresponding to the original gathering at P and collected at the original locality by Quartin Dillon ; one of these bears a label indicating “ holotype ”, but the herbarium number of this specimen was not indicated in Qaiser & Lack (1986b). Therefore, a second-step lectotype has to be designated. We selected the specimen P033897 because it is in a good state of preservation, has well-developed capitula, and morphologically agrees with the original description .
