Description

Anemone pulsatilla Linnaeus, Species Plantarum 1: 539. 1753.

"Habitat in campis sylvestribus exaridis collibusque apricis Europae borealis." RCN: 4004.

Lectotype (Sell in Jarvis & al. in Taxon 54: 469. 2005): Herb. Linn. No. 710.5 (LINN).

Current name: Anemone pulsatilla L. (Ranunculaceae).

Note: Sprague (in J. Linn. Soc., Bot. 48: 90. 1928) argued that a Brunfels illustration, which was not cited in the protologue, should be the type and Aichele & Schwegler (in Feddes Repert. 60: 199. 1957) designated a neotype (illustrated as t. XXIX, f. 1). Neither choice can be accepted because original material is in existence.
