Abstract

The name Allium cirrhosum is here lectotypified based on an unpublished illustration preserved at University of Pavia Library. The lectotype does not include a complete set of significant distinguishing features and cannot be critically identified for purposes of the precise application of the name. Hence, an epitype preserved at PI was selected to serve as an interpretative type. Based on the typification here proposed, the name A. cirrhosum has priority at species rank over A. coloratum (1771 vs. 1825).
