Abstract
The original concept of Allium magicum L, and A. nigrum I,. is discuss ed, a lectotype for A. magicum is designated, and an earlier type desi gnation of A. nigrum is rejected. Without conservation, A. magicum wou ld become the correct name for what is currently called A. nigrum, whi le A. nigrum would fall into the synonymy of A. roseum L. The nomencla tural history of A. roseum is discussed and an earlier lectotypificati on is superseded.
