Nomenclatural note. Described by Bentham (1846), V. syriaca var. pusilla is supposed to differ from V. syriaca by smaller, narrower, and mostly entire leaves. This taxon is now considered to be a synonym of V. debilis ( Fischer 1972) , but the group needs further revision with thorough studies of the indumentum not visible online. Therefore, no typification is done at the moment. Paris holds seven type specimens. Both, the general and the Cosson herbarium have two sheets on which both collections are combined.
