Type Information
Type locality: Varanger peninsula, Norrway; (Gunnerus 1776: 1091) Notes: "Gunnerus referred to a specimen collected by Maximilian Hell who in 1769 observed the Venus passage at the Varanger peninsula and also collected plants there, but there is no specimen in Gunnerus’s herbarium referring to him, so it is safest to lectotypify the name on the illustration tab. II fig. 15 in the Flora, and to designate 1045.1 in his herbarium as epitype, the same specimen that C. Maggs annotated as lectotype in 1993." (Jørgensen 2012: 1091).
