Syntype localities: "Dalmazia - Sebenico, Vidovich; Lesina, Botteri" [Croatia: Lesina (=Hvar) (43º05'N, 16º35'E)] Sebenico, Dalmazia (collected by Vidovich); Lesina, Dalmazia (collected by Botteri); (Zanardini 1865: 385) Lectotype: Botteri; MCVE; unnumbered (Pena-Martin et al. 2011: 75, 71, fig 36) Notes: Pena-Martin et al. (2011: 71, 73) note that only material from Lesina is conserved in Herbarium Zanardini, at MCVE (Venice, Italia), and it consists of a sheet with five specimens, and 3 original drawings corresponding to figures 2, 3 and 4 of the plate XV B of the protologue.
