Description

Lepidium pichleri Boiss., Fl. Orient. Suppl.: 63. 1888.

Type: “Hab. in Persiâ loco non notato, unde semina attulit cl. Pichler!”.

Holotypus: IRAN: “Cult Valeyres”, 1883, Pichler s.n. (G-BOIS [G00332567]).

= Lepidium vesicarium L., Sp. Pl.: 643. 1753.

Notes. – The holotype is a collection folder of two sheets of which one is unlabeled.

We agree with THELLUNG (1906b: 149) that L. pichleri is a cultivated form of L. vesicarium in which the stems failed to inflate at the inflorescence nodes to produce the characteristic aspect of the species. In every other feature of the plant the former is indistinguishable from the latter.
