Description

Ononis variegata Linnaeus, Species Plantarum 2: 717. 1753.

"Habitat in Europae australis maritimis." RCN: 5271.

Lectotype (Förther in Turland & Jarvis in Taxon 46: 478. 1997): Herb. A. van Royen No. 908.120-1904 (L).

Current name: Ononis variegata L. (Fabaceae: Faboideae).

Note: Several authors (e.g. Jafri in Jafri & El-Gadi, Fl. Libya 86: 167. 1980; Devesa in Mem. Soc. Brot. 28: 19. 1988) have treated Herb. Linn. 896.9 (LINN) as the type, but this collection lacks a Species Plantarum number (i.e. “6”), is a post-1753 addition to the herbarium, and is not original material for the name.
