The Cruciferae account in the Flora Orientalis and its Supplementum treated 118 genera, 784 species, and 155 varieties. Of these, 28 genera, 411 species, and 121 varieties were described by Edmond Boissier (1810–1885) either alone or in collaboration with other botanists and collectors to 1888. The present tribal affiliation and latest number of species are given here for each genus that included taxa described by Boissier. The new names Draba antilibanotica Al-Shehbaz and Draba edmondii Al-Shehbaz, and the new combinations Acuston petalodes (DC.) Al-Shehbaz and Lepidium cartilagineum subsp. crenatifolium (Boiss. & Balansa) Al-Shehbaz are proposed. The following new synonyms are proposed: Aethionema heterophyllum (Boiss. & Buhse) Boiss. is synonymized with Noccaea trinervia (DC.) Steud., Malcolmia ciliaris Boiss. with Pseudodraba hystrix (Hook. f. & Thomson) Al-Shehbaz et al., and Erysimum canescens var. latifolium Boiss. with Erysimum bulgaricum (Velen.) Ancev & Polatschek. A neotype for Aethionema schistosum Boiss. & Kotschy is designated. All prior typifications of Boissier’s species and varieties are critically evaluated here. Of the total 500 Boissier’s novelties, the type collections of seven names (three species and four varieties) were not found. Fifty-one names were correctly typified by earlier authors, 280 holotypes are located, 161 lectotypes and one neotype are designated herein. Further details are provided in the section “Concluding remarks”.
