Treatment

Hieracium mariae-bornmuelleriae Zahn (1936: 243) , nom. inval.: sine descr./diagn. Lat. (ICN Art. 39.1, Turland et al. 2018).

Ind. loc.: “Riesengebirge [Karkonosze Mts.], Melzergrund, 1000 m (Bornmüller)!”

Remarks: —Due to the lack of a Latin description the name was not validly published (ICN Art. 39.1, Turland et al. 2018). In addition, Zahn was wrong about the first name of Josef Bornmüller´s wife to whom he intended to dedicate the species (see footnote in Ascherson & Gräbner´s “Synopsis” [ Zahn 1936: 243]), since Mrs. Bornmüller´s first name is not Maria, but Frida. Otherwise, this taxon is well characterized as “ saxifragum – fritzei ” and so we decided to validate the name by translating Zahn’s German description:
