Corylus colchica Albov 1895

Description

4. Corylus colchica Albov

Prodromus Florae Colchicae: 219 (Albov 1895). – Original citation: “Hab. in Mingrelia: ad rupes calcareas montinum Dzhwari et Migaria (supra pagum Kurdzu), 1900–2000 m, (N. A. 1893, nos 500, 501).” – Type: Georgia, [Samegrelo-Zemo Svaneti], Mingrélie, Mt. Djwari [Jvari], frontière de la forêt, 25 Aug. 1893, N.M. Alboff 501 (lecto-, designated here: G00418165!). – Additional type material: Georgia, [Samegrelo-Zemo Svaneti], Mingrélie, Mt. Migaria, 2000 m a.s.l., Aug. 1893, N.M. Alboff 500 (syn-: G00418164!). – Note: Corylus colchica is recognized in the Flora of the USSR (Bobrov 1936a) and in the World Checklist and Bibliography of Fagales (Govaerts & Frodin 1998). According to Bobrov (1936a), the type is in G, whereas a duplicate is found in LE. However, it is not mentioned, which of the two syntype specimens is to be regarded as the lectotype (Bobrov 1936a: 267), therefore, we designate one. The existence of a LE duplicate could not be confirmed (LE, pers. com.).
