Effective lectotypification for three Linnaean names based on syntype specimens from the Joachim Burser Herbarium
摘要
In the works published by Linnaeus between 1753 and 1771 in which new species are described, syntypes derived from specific herbarium specimens, rather than from general collection data (e.g., locality and author indication) potentially linked to specimens, are rarely cited. However, among the herbarium material explicitly referenced by Linnaeus, Joachim Burser’s collections represent the majority of syntypes sourced from herbarium specimens. This study discusses the typification of three Linnaean names: Anemone alpina (currently Pulsatilla alpina (L.) Delarbre), Chenopodium altissimum (Suaeda altissima (L.) Pall.), and Hedysarum onobrychis (Onobrychis viciifolia Scop.). For each of these, Linnaeus cited a specific syntype in the respective protologue, which is preserved in the Burser Herbarium at UPS-BURSER. The designation of the nomenclatural types is based on a detailed analysis of the protologues, examination of Linnaeus’s original material, and review of the literature cited in the protologues. The names are lectotypified using specimens preserved in the Burser Herbarium at UPS-BURSER.
