(3034) Proposal to reject the name Argemone pyrenaica (Papaver pyrenaicum) (Papaveraceae).

The article discusses the proposal to reject the name Argemone pyrenaica (Papaver pyrenaicum) in the journal Taxon. The article provides a detailed analysis of the taxonomic history and distribution of the genus Papaver, specifically focusing on the species Oreomecon alpina (formerly known as Papaver alpinum) and its subspecies. The author argues that the resurrection of the name Papaver pyrenaicum would be disruptive to nomenclatural stability and proposes the rejection of the name Argemone pyrenaica to maintain the current use of Papaver lapeyrouseanum or Oreomecon lapeyrouseana. The proposal aims to secure the correct species- and subspecies-level epithet for the entity commonly referred to as P. lapeyrouseanum. [Extracted from the article]
