1. Hieracium murorum [subsp. pseudomerianum] subforma aestivale Zahn (1934: 482)

Ind. loc.:—“Comer See z. B. Ponte S. Pietro im Val Sassina und zwischen Genico und Croce di Brentalon; Menaggio; Perledo-Esino”.

Type:—[ ITALY. Lombardy, Prov. LC] “ Lierna. Valletta di Regoledo , margine del sentiero che sale da Genico alla Croce di Brentalon, 31 Jul 1923, P. Rossi ” (lectotype, designated here: PAV-LOM014983 !) .

Syntype:—[ ITALY. Lombardy, Prov. LC] “ Lierna , fraz. Genico sopra il paese presso i margini del sentiero del mulino di Lierna, 31 Jul 1923, P. Rossi ” ( PAV-LOM014256 !) .

Remarks:—In PAV we could trace two specimens that correspond to localities cited in the protologue (“between Genico and Croce di Brentalon) and bear labels handwritten by Zahn that make explicit reference to this new form. Unfortunately, one of these specimens is severely damaged, and no leaves are available (PAV-LOM014256); the second one is damaged, too (no capitula remain). However, in the second specimen, leaves are clearly visible and correspond to Zahn’s original description. The specimen PAV-LOM014983 is designated as a lectotype of the name.

Current name:— Hieracium tenuiflorum .
