Sophora lupinoides Linnaeus, Species Plantarum 1: 374. 1753.

"Habitat in Camtschatca. G. Demidoff." RCN: 2943.

Proposed conserved type (Zhu & Kirkbride in Taxon 55: 1047. 2006): Kamchatka, Pallas s.n. (BM).

Current name: Thermopsis lupinoides (L.) Link (Fabaceae: Faboideae).

Note: The lectotype of Thermopsis lupinoides (L.) Link (Steller, Herb. Linn. No. 522.19 (LINN), designated by Kit Tan in Turland & Jarvis in Taxon 46: 480. 1997) has been found to be identifiable as the Siberian/Chinese species long known as T. lanceolata R. Br., and not the species from Kamchatka to which it has generally been applied. Zhu & Kirkbride have therefore proposed the Linnaean name for conservation with a conserved type.
