  • 1. Department of Botany, Natural History Museum, Cromwell Road, London, UK

Description

Geranium rapaceum Linnaeus, Systema Naturae, ed. 10, 2: 1141. 1759.

RCN: 4958.

Type not designated.

Original material: Herb. Linn. No. 858.37 (LINN); [icon] in Commelin, Hort. Med. Amstelod. Pl. Rar. 2: 125, t. 63. 1701.

Current name: Pelargonium rapaceum (L.) L’Hér. (Geraniaceae).

Note: Albers (in Eggli, Ill. Handb. Succ. Pl., Dicots: 266. 2002) indicated the cited Commelin plate as type, but this was published after 1 Jan 2001 and so the omission of the phrase "designated here" or an equivalent (Art. 7.11) means that this choice is not effective.
