Cardamine olympica Boiss., Diagn. Pl. Orient. 8: 19. 1849.

Type: “Hab. in pratis humidis regionis tertiae Olympi Bithyni ubi cl. Aucher eam floriferam ego autem fructiferam legimus”.

Holotypus: TURKEY: “Olymp. Byth.”, s.d., Aucher-Eloy 114 (G-BOIS [G00332053]; iso-: G [G00446019], P [P06651949]) .

= Cardamine uliginosa M. Bieb., Fl. Taur. -Caucas. 3: 438. 1819.

Notes. – The G isotype belongs to the Moricand herbarium, and the P sheet was not annotated by Boissier. Therefore, Boissier based his description solely on the unicate in his herbarium, and that sheet should be recognized as the holotype (see BOISSIER, 1841a).

The species was misidentified by BOISSIER (1842a) as C. tenera C.A. Mey., but was later reduced by him to synonymy of C. uliginosa in Flora Orientalis.
