Triticum turgidum Linnaeus, Species Plantarum 1: 86. 1753.

"Habitat - - - –” RCN: 721.

Lectotype (Morrison in Taxon 47: 707. 1998): Herb. A. van Royen No. 913.62-257 (L) .

Current name: Gigachilon polonicum (L.) Seidl subsp. turgidum (L.) Á . Löve ( Poaceae).

Note: Bowden (in Canad. J. Bot. 37: 669. 1959) designated 104.2 (LINN) as lectotype. However, Morrison (in Taxon 47: 705. 1998) has found that this material belongs not to T. turgidum but rather to T. aestivum . From the annotations, Morrison argues that 104.2 (LINN) was not original material for T. turgidum (but rather for T. hybernum) and rejects Bowden’s typification, choosing a van Royen sheet as lectotype in its place.
