Cimicifuga simplex (DC.) Wormsk. ex Turcz. is the correct author citat
ion. Lectotypification on a sheet of Wormskjold's original material at
Oslo supersedes an earlier neotypification. Lectotypes are also desig
nated for three synonyms of C. simplex: C. foetida var. intermedia Reg
el, C. ussuriensis Oett, and C. taquetii H. Lev.
