Aegilops incurva Linnaeus, Species Plantarum 2: 1051. 1753.

"Habitat in Oriente. Tournefort." RCN: 7594.

Neotype (Cuccuini in Cafferty & al. in Taxon 49: 242. 2000): Herb. Linn. No. 1218.11 (LINN) .

Current name: Parapholis incurva (L.) C.E. Hubb. ( Poaceae).

Note: Hubbard (in Proc. Linn. Soc. London 148: 112. 1936) provided an extensive discussion of the elements involved in this name but did not formally choose a type. Cuccuini (2000) designated 1218.11 (LINN) as the lectotype, but doubts over the material’s status as an original element later led him (in Webbia 57: 18-19. 2002) to treat it instead as a neotype.
