Abstract

Schultz “Bipontinus” (1805-1867) described, in the Histoire Naturelle des Îles Canaries published by Webb and Berthelot in 1849, several forms of the Andryala pinnatifida complex, endemic to the Canary Islands, based on plant material collected by E. Bourgeau and P. B. Webb. In order to facilitate a forthcoming taxonomic revision of this species complex, some of the names established by Schultz “Bipontinus” are here lectotypified based on protologue analysis and the examination of original material located at P and FI-W herbaria.

Highlights

  • Andryala L. (Asteraceae: Cichorieae) is a small genus comprising about 17 species distributed in the Mediterranean region, Southwest Europe, Northwest Africa, and Macaronesia (Sell 1976; Talavera 1987; Tohmé & Tohmé 2007; Blanca 2011; El Oualidi & al. 2012; Fennane 2014)

Summary

Introduction

Andryala L. (Asteraceae: Cichorieae) is a small genus comprising about 17 species distributed in the Mediterranean region, Southwest Europe, Northwest Africa, and Macaronesia (Sell 1976; Talavera 1987; Tohmé & Tohmé 2007; Blanca 2011; El Oualidi & al. 2012; Fennane 2014). The specimen P 02462161 from the Schultz “Bipontinus” collection was the only one found under A. pinnatifida f. The observation of original material from the Schultz Bipontinus collection showed that these forms are morphologically very similar to the lectotype of A. pinnatifida Aiton. Massoniana by Schultz “Bipontinus” (1849) matches the one on the label of the specimen P 02462109, designated here as the lectotype.
