Description

Rosa gallica Linnaeus, Species Plantarum 1: 492. 1753.

"Habitat in Gallia." RCN: 3742.

Lectotype (Jafri in Jafri & El-Gadi, Fl. Libya 31: 26. 1977): Herb. Linn. No. 652.26 (LINN).

Current name: Rosa gallica L. (Rosaceae).

Note: Jafri’s type choice is clear, though there has been some subsequent discussion as to its appropriateness (see Heath in Calyx 4: 60-61. 1994; Reichert in Gleditschia 24: 13, 15-16. 1997). Ghora & Panigrahi (Fam. Rosaceae India 2: 316-322. 1995) illustrate the type (as pl. 60A).
