Comment:
or
Apium graveolens
Celeriac Group
although Gaudin (in
Flora Helvetica
) validly published infraspecific names at 3 hierarchical positions, only his 2nd-level names can be assigned rank (variety, designated by Greek letters and referenced in observations by that term) under
Shenzhen ICN
Art. 37, the remaining names must be treated as unranked (fide W. Greuter, pers. comm. on 25 Aug 2010)
