"R. exaltata (L.) L.f. [Naezén!] (1779) was based on Aegilops exaltata L. (= Ophiuros exaltatus (L.) Kuntze), but was accompanied by a figure of quite a different species. Linnaeus corrected his mistake in 1781 [1782!], basing a new name R. corymbosa L.f. on A. exaltata, and retaining R. exaltata L.f. for the earlier figure, in which sense the name has been used ever since."
