“…We propose 29 lectotypes, 28 epitypes and two neotypes for European Helvella species and resurrect 12 old binomials to be applied to newly recovered species, i.e., two species described by Schaeffer (1774) , two species described by Bergeret (1783) , one species described by Persoon (1799) , two species described by Holmskjold (1799) , one species described by Albertini & Schweinitz (1805) , one species described by Raddi (1807) , one species described by Schweinitz (1822) , one species described by Fries (1822) , and one species described by Inzenga (1865) . Seven species are described as new, i.e., H. alpicola , H. alpina , H. carnosa , H. danica , H. nannfeldtii , H. pubescens and H. scyphoides , and full descriptions are provided for 12 emended species where the current concepts encompassed several related or unrelated species.…”
