Cynosurus aegyptiusLinnaeus, Species Plantarum1: 72. 1753.
"Habitat in Africa, Asia, America." RCN: 610.
Lectotype(Kit Tan in Davis, Fl. Turkey9: 578. 1985): Herb. Linn. No. 91.11 ( LINN).
Note:Cope (in Nasir & Ali, Fl. Pakistan143: 106. 1982) indicated two descriptions published by Bauhin, along with a cited Plukenet illustration, as "type", and therefore did not restrict their choice to a single element. Kit Tan appears to have been the first to refer to a single element as the type.
