"
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." (Clayton, Kew Bull. 35:
817-818. 1981).
