Summary Allium triquetrum L. (1753) has been typified (de Wilde‐Duyfjes 1973) by a specimen collected by Clas Alströmer in Spain in 1760. This specimen was available to Linnaeus in 1760 or 1761 and is thus unsuitable for typification purposes. Instead, the illustration in Parkinson's Paradisus terrestris (1629) would be suitable as the lectotype.
