Hesperis flava Kotschy & Boiss. in Boiss., Fl. Orient. 1: 237. 1867 [nom. illeg.] [non Georgi].  Hesperis dvorakii D.A. German in Turczaninowia 15(4): 13. 2012. Type: “Hab. in faucibus argillosis ditionis Kassan Oglu Ciliciae Kurdicae ad pagum Backchadjik, alt. 4600! (Ky exs. 137!)”. Holotypus: TURKEY: “Plantae in montibus Kassan Oghlu ad pagum Gorumse lectae. In faucibus argillosis versus pagum Baktschadschik”, 4600' [1700 m], 23.V.1859, Kotschy 137 (G-BOIS [G00332237]; iso-: B [B100261504, B100261505], BM [BM000522180], E [E00148082], G [G00446226], K [K000693680], LE [LE00013083, LE00013084], P [P00234973, P00747234, P00747235], S [S11-32404], US [US00100449], W [W0075689, W0075690]). Notes. – Although B has two sheets of the type collection of H. flava, DVOŘÁK (1967) apparently examined one, showed its photo, and captioned it as the type, actually only typical material. He segregated the species into monospecific Diplopilosa Dvořák based on slight differences in flowers, fruit, and cotyledons. However, the genus has recently been synonymized with Hesperis by AL-SHEHBAZ (2012) and GERMAN (2012).
