Type.

(lectotype designated by Ferrer-Gallego 2014, pg. 253. 2014): LINN [Herb. Linn. No. 242.2]!). (1)

Notes.

Original material is kept in the Linnaean Herbarium at the Linnean Society of London; an image of the lectotype is available at http://linneanonline.org/1832/.

(2) Maire and Murbeck (in Murbeck 1927) described V.hookerianumvar.pseudocalycinum on the basis of specimens collected from Reraya region in the Great Atlas, Morocco. However, the protologue does not give the name of the herbarium where the original material was deposited. The search for type material brought us to four specimens housed at Herb. RAB (RAB030509) and at Herb. MPU (MPU010269; MPU010270, MPU010268). The sheet RAB030509 stored at herb RAB is here selected as the lectotype for the name V.hookerianumvar.pseudocalycinum.
