Abstract

The name Hieracium australe Fr. (Asteraceae) is typified by specimens collected on the ancient walls of Sforza Castle in Milan (Italy) by Luigi Fenaroli in 1926 and distributed through the Flora Italica Exsiccata series under the name Hieracium australe Fr. subsp. mediolanense Fenaroli & Zahn. The identity and the taxonomic position of this neglected species is discussed.
