Taxonomy

The first publication took place in 1753 under the name ( Basionym ) Hypochaeris pontana by Carl von Linné in Species Plantarum , 2, page 810. The new combination to Crepis pontana (L.) Dalla Torre was in 1882 by the Austrian botanist from Tyrol Karl Wilhelm von Dalla Torre ( 1850-1928) in Sonklar & al .: Instructions for the observation and identification of alpine plants, page 145 published. The specific epithet pontana means "from the Pontus on the Black Sea". Synonyms for Crepis pontana (L.) Dalla Torre are: Crepis bocconei P.D.Sell nom. illeg., Crepis montana exchange nom. illegal. non Bernh.
