Arnica crocea Linnaeus View in CoL , Species Plantarum 2: 885. 1753.

"Habitat in Aethiopia." RCN: 6402.

Lectotype (Hansen in Jarvis & Turland in Taxon 47: 353. 1998): [icon] " Gerbera foliis planis, dentatis, flore purpureo" in Burman, Rar. Afric. Pl.: 157, t. 56, f. 2. 1739.

Current name: Gerbera crocea (L.) Kuntze View in CoL View at ENA ( Asteraceae ).

Note: Hansen (in Opera Bot. 78: 13. 1985) indicates Herb. Linn. 1001.7 ( LINN) as holotype. However, this collection lacks the Species Plantarum number (in this case, “4”) written by Linnaeus and was a later addition to the herbarium, and not original material for the name. Recognising this, Hansen subsequently designated a Burman plate as lectotype in its place.
