Muñoz Garmendia, F., Laínz, M. & Aedo, C.: Neotypification of the name Geum pyrenaicum (Rosaceae). – Taxon 47: 113-114. 1998. – ISSN 0040-0262.
There is no extant original material for Geum pyrenaicum Mill., a name sometimes attributed to Willdenow. Although the name has often been misapplied to the hybrid G. montanum ´ G. rivale by Central European authors in the past, and may have been so used by both Miller and Willdenow, its universal use for a Pyrenean-Cantabrian endemic for 150 years makes it advisable to fix that application by designation of an appropriate neotype.
