Prunus nairica (Fed. & Takht.) Eisenman View in CoL , comb. nov.

Basionym:— Amygdalus nairica Fedorov & Takhtajan View in CoL in Fiodorov & Tachtadzhian (1936: 288).

Type (lectotype, desgnated here):— ARMENIA. On the road between Meghri and Shvanidzor, 18 May 1935, Fedorov, s.n. ( ERE 26331!).

Note:— Avetisian et al. (1999) stated that the syntypes ( ERE 20775!, ERE 20776!, ERE 20792!, all Takhtajan s.n., 20.IX.1934; ERE 26331! and ERE 26327!, both Fedorov s.n. 18. V.1935), toposyntypes and specimina authentica are held at ERE. These syntypes were later described as representing a number of different forms ( Fedorov 1942). The specimen that fits with the original description is ERE 26331, which was later described as Amygdalus nairica f. normalis Fedorov (1942: 138) . This specimen is here selected as lectotype.
