Typification of names in genus Hieracium based on original herbarium material of Alexis Jordan and Alexandre Boreau

Abstract

181 names of Hieracium species going back to original herbarium material of Alexis Jordan or Alexandre Boreau are lectotypified, 27 are neotypified. The study is based on herbarium specimens of the Université Catholique de Lyon (LY) and Ville d’Angers (ANG), Martrin-Donos’s herbarium at the Institut Botanique de Montpellier (MPUTarn) and Arvet-Touvet’s herbarium at the Musée d’Histoire Naturelle de Grenoble (GRM-AT). The type specimens are illustrated by photographs of the entire herbarium sheets with some detail views of flower heads and leaves. Usual nomenclatural synonyms are given for each taxon
