Carduus lanceolatusLinnaeus, Species Plantarum2: 821. 1753.
"Habitat in Europae cultis ruderatis." RCN: 5945.
Lectotype(Talavera & Valdesin Lagascalia5: 197. 1976): Herb. Linn. No. 966.1 ( LINN).
Note:Jeffrey (in Kew Bull.22: 129. 1968) indicated material in the Clifford herbarium (BM) as lectotype. However, he did not distinguish between the two sheets preserved there and, as they evidently are not part of a single gathering, Art. 9.15 does not apply. Talavera & Valdestherefore appear to have made the earliest explicit type choice.
