"Habitat in Europae aquis undosis, fossis, rivulis." RCN: 4100. Lectotype (Cook in Mitt. Bot. Staatssamml. Muenchen 6: 123. 1966): Herb. Linn. No. 715.75 ( LINN ) . Current name: Ranunculus aquatilis L. ( Ranunculaceae ). Note: Misled by Jackson's erroneous assertion that 715.75 (LINN) was unavailable to Linnaeus until 1767, Cook designated it as neotype . However, as it is original material, his choice is accepted as being correctable to a lectotype (Art. 9.8).
