Nomenclatural Notes for Fritillaria pyrenaica (Liliaceae) in the Iberian Peninsula

Abstract

The nomenclature of the new combination Fritillaria pyrenaica L. subsp. falcata (E. Rico) R. Alonso, de Paz & M. E. García (Liliaceae) is presented. The taxon, endemic to the Iberian Peninsula, was initially described under the illegitimate later homonym F. falcata Caball. Herein, we correct the authorities of the basionym F. lusitanica Wikstr. f. falcata (Caball.) E. Rico and the replaced synonym F. nervosa Willd. subsp. falcata (Caball.) Fern.-Arias & Devesa.
