Description
Enarthrocarpus strangulatus (Boiss.) belongs to the Brassicaceae family and is distributed across North Africa and the Levant. The species was first published in 1849 by Edmond Boissier. The holotype collection in G-BOIS includes four sheets, one of which, collected in April 1846, has a locality label in Boissier's handwriting. Three other sheets are unlabeled, and their fruit maturity aligns more closely with the lectotype than with the syntype G 00332661. Another specimen, collected in March 1846 and annotated by Boissier, is also recognized as a syntype.
