loi07 | The invalid 'Rhododendrion kotschyi de Foucault 1991' (de Foucault 1991: 163), is validated here: Rhododendrion myrtifolii de Foucault ex Theurillat et Mucina all. nov. hoc loco. The holotypus (hoc loco) is the Junco trifidi-Rhododendretum kotschyi Resmeriţă 1978 (original name: 'Rhodoreto-Juncetum trifidi Resmeriţă 1975'). The name of the association was published at first as a nomen nudum in Resmeriţă (1975: 345). Then the name was incidentally validly published on p. 370 in Resmeriţă (1978). The diagnostic taxa of the new alliance are Rhododendron myrtifolium, Potentilla aurea subsp. chrysocraspeda and Soldanella major. (J.-P. Theurillat).
