"Habitat in Alpium rupibus." RCN: 8169.

Type not designated.

Note: Specific epithet spelled “atro-albus” in the protologue. See discussion in Jørgensen & al. (in Bot. J. Linn. Soc. 115: 277. 1994), who concluded that this is a nomen non satis nota and (in Taxon 43: 646. 1994) successfully proposed its rejection.
