Note:
In the absence of any material in LINN, Drouet (in
Beih. Nova Hedwigia 57
: 26. 1978) designated material in
Herb. Dillenius (
OXF
)
as a
neotype
. However, the existence of original material for the name means that
Drouet's
neotype
choice is contrary to Art. 9.11 (see Spencer & al. in
Taxon
, in press).
