( Fig. 1 View FIG )

Kew Bulletin 4 (1): 46 (1949).

TYPE. — Iraq. Amadia , Kurdistan , Mazurka Gorge above Sulaf, 1500 m, 2.VIII.1933, E. R. Guest 3773 (lecto-, first-step designated by Wagenitz [1980: 341] K!; second-step lecto-, designated here, K [ K000794077 ]!; isolecto-, K [ K000794076 ]!) .

REMARKS

Blakelock (1949) described Centaurea faveolata based on collections of Guest 3773 from Mazurka, Amadia, but did not mention any specific sheet as the holotype nor the name of the herbarium where the specimens were housed. Two herbarium specimens of collection number 3773 of Guest from Mazurka were found at herbarium K (K000794076 and K000794077). Although Wagenitz (1980) indicated that the lectotype (as “type K”) is at K, he did not specify nor annotate any of the two sheets there, and a second-step lectotypification is needed. The sheetK000794077 is selected here as the lectotype, because it clearly shows the characters mentioned in the protologue.
