Lactucopsis mulgedioides Sch.Bip. in Visiani & Pančić (1870: 6)

Syntypes:—Specimens named “ Lactuca mulgedioides ” in the gathering from year 1859 titled “ Iter cilicico-kurdicum ” collected by Theodor Kotschy (1813–1866) and already labelled as a new species by the collector and Pierre Edmond Boissier.

Note:—In the protologue, Schultz-Bipontinus explicitly cited the provisorial name “ Lactuca mulgedioides ”, which was applied to a collection with duplicates widely distributed to herbaria in Europe.As the name L. mulgedioides was not effectively published simply by the distribution of such specimens (Art. 29.1, McNeill et al. 2012), and as Schultz-Bipontinus provided a short diagnosis, the name Lactucopsis mulgedioides was validly published by him as a new species in Visiani & Pančić (1870). A validating description for the name Lactuca mulgedioides appeared a few years later ( Lactuca mulgedioides Boissier & Kotschy ex Boissier (1875: 815) , with no mention of Schultz-Bipontinus’s work. We consider the series of duplicates cited by Schultz-Bipontinus as syntypes designated by him (see Art. 9.5 and Art. 40 Note 1, McNeill et al. 2012).
