Agropyro-Rumicion Nordhagen 1940 nom. ambig. rejic. propos.
cak04 | The Agropyro-Rumicion crispi Nordhagen 1940 has been described as communities of maritime strandline communities. However, that name has later been used predominantly for inland communities of flooded pastures (e.g. Pott 1995). The true Agropyro-Rumicion crispi communities and the inland communities of flooded pastures (correct name as applied here: Potentillion anserinae Tx. 1947 in the Molinio-Arrhenatheretea) have little in common, except for Rumex crispus and Potentilla anserina (Sýkora 1980). Because of the frequent misapplication of the name Agropyro-Rumicion crispi in a way that excludes its nomenclatural type, the Agropyro-Rumicion crispi becomes a candidate for nomen ambiguum (see also Theurillat 1997).
