Gentiana pneumonanthe Linnaeus, Species Plantarum 1: 228. 1753.

"Habitat in Europae pascuis humidiusculis." RCN: 1862.

Type not designated.

Original material: Herb. Linn. No. 328.7 (LINN); Herb. Clifford: 80, Gentiana 3, 3 sheets (BM) ; Herb. Burser X: 67 (UPS); [icon] in Reneaulme, Specim. Hist. Pl.: 69, 68. 1611.

Current name: Gentiana pneumonanthe L. ( Gentianaceae).

Note: Ho & Liu (in Worldw. Monogr. Gentiana: 287. 2001) wrongly indicated 328.7 (LINN) as holotype (with three other collections as “type”). The absence of "designated here" (Art. 7.11) precludes the acceptance of the material in LINN as a lectotype.
