Rhamnus spina-christi Linnaeus , Species Plantarum 1: 195. 1753 View Cited Treatment .

"Habitat in Aethiopia, Palaestina." RCN: 1573.

Lectotype (Johnston in Milne-Redhead & Polhill, Fl. Trop. E. Africa, Rhamnaceae : 30. 1972): Hasselquist, Herb. Linn. No. 262.36 ( LINN) .

Current name: Ziziphus spina-christi (L.) Desf. ( Rhamnaceae ).

Note: Johnston indicated a Hasselquist specimen in LINN as holotype, but gave the sheet number as 262.38. As this relates to a Browne collection associated with R. zizyphus L. , it seems clear that this is simply an error for 262.36.
