Trifolium stellatumLinnaeus, Species Plantarum2: 769. 1753.
"Habitat in Sicilia, Italia, G. Narbonensi." RCN: 5665.
Lectotype(Lassen in Turland & Jarvis in Taxon46: 482. 1997): Herb. Linn. No. 930.39 ( LINN).
Note:Zohary (in Candollea27: 130. 1972) treated material in Herb. Clifford ( BM)as syntypes. However, the two sheets there associated with this name are not part of a single gathering (so Art. 9.15 does not apply), nor were they explicitly cited by Linnaeus (so they are not syntypes). Lassen'slater choice of material in LINN as lectotypeis therefore accepted here. See earlier comments on this name by Jarvis (in Webbia45: 111-113. 1991).
