Ophrys paludosa Linnaeus, Species Plantarum 2: 947. 1753.

"Habitat in Sueciae paludibus turfosis." RCN: 6849.

Lectotype (Baumann & al. in Mitteilungsbl. Arbeitskr. Heim. Orchid. Baden-Württemberg 21: 487, Abb. 20. 1989): Herb. Linn. No. 1056.16, middle specimen (LINN) .

Current name: Hammarbya paludosa (L.) Kuntze ( Orchidaceae).

Note: Baumann & al. assume, on the basis of Linnaeus’ later Flora Suecica (1755: 316) account, that the type collection was made near Uppsala by Linnaeus and Bergius, although there are no annotations on the sheet itself to indicate this.
