Primula veris Linnaeus var. elatior Linnaeus , Species Plantarum 1: 143. 1753 View Cited Treatment .

RCN: 1150.

Type not designated.

Original material: Herb. Burser XIII: 138 ( UPS) ; [icon] in Clusius, Rar. Pl. Hist. 1: 301. 1601.

Current name: Primula elatior (L.) Hill ( Primulaceae ).

Note: Greuter (in Candollea 44: 1989) argues that this is the basionym of a new combination, P. elatior (L.) L., Fl. Anglica (1754) , which is the correct form of the more usual P. elatior (L.) Hill (1765) , for the oxlip. However, this is disputed by Brummitt & Meikle (in Watsonia 19: 183-184. 1993), who argued that there is variability in the typography of different versions of the thesis. They argue that the correct name remains P. elatior (L.) Hill.
