Robinia pseudoacaciaLinnaeus, Species Plantarum2: 722. 1753.
"Habitat in Virginia." RCN: 5449.
Replaced synonym of: Robinia acaciaL. (1759), nom. illeg.
Lectotype(Barrie in Jarvis & al., Regnum Veg.127: 82. 1993): Herb. Clifford: 354, Robinia1, sheet B(BM-000646538).
Generitypeof RobiniaLinnaeus(vide Green, Prop. Brit. Bot.: 174. 1929).
Note:Polhill (in Bosser & al., Fl. Mascareignes80: 80. 1990) indicated 913.1 (LINN) as type, but this sheet lacks the Species Plantarumnumber (i.e. "1") and is a post-1753 addition to the herbarium, and not original material for the name. Brummitt & Taylor (in Taxon39: 303. 1990) discussed the orthography of the specific epithet, concluding that "pseudoacacia"is correct.
