| Endocellion sibiricum (J.F. Gmel.) J. Toman | |
| Publ. & Syn. | Nardosmia gmelinii Turcz. ex DC., Prodr. 7, 1: 271 (1838). Lectotype: J.G. Gmelin, Fl. Sibir. 2: t. 67, f. 1. 1752. (Toman 1972: 394). - Petasites gmelinii (Turcz. ex DC.) Polunin, Rhodora 53: 288 (1951). - Endocellion gmelinii (Turcz. ex DC.) Á. Löve & D. Löve, Bot. Not. 128: 519 (1976). - Endocellion boreale Turcz. ex Herder, Bull. Soc. Imp. Naturalistes Moscou 38: 375 (1865). Based on the same type as Nardosmia gmelinii (Kuprianova 1961: 654). |
| Notes | Elven: Note that Kuprianova (1961) and Toman (1972) designated the same Gmelin illustration as lectotype for both the names Nardosmia gmelinii and Endocellion boreale. Korobkov: Löve and Löve (1975a) accepted a highly polyploid Endocellion boreale but this view is not accepted by Russian authors. There is only one possibly original specimen (in LE) of E. boreale, consisting of two small flowering shoots with single capitulae. The whole habit of the plant is indicated by a pencil drawing. According to all the morphological features and the general size, this plant undoubtedly belongs to E. sibiricum. Inclusion of E. boreale as a synonym of E. sibiricum is accepted by all authors of Siberian Floras. The high-ploid counts referred by Löve and Löve (1975a) all rather belong to E. glaciale. |
