Notes. – Boissier in Flora Orientalis erroneously maintained var. cappadocicum despite citing its type under the collections of Alyssum tetrastemon and listed a different collection under that variety.

He did not annotate the duplicate G00446167, and his Flora Orientalis varietal concept was the basis for DUDLEY’S (1964a: 72) A. corningii T.R. Dudley.
