Abstract: During a taxonomic revision on the higher plant collection of Ferdinand Schur (1799–1878), deposited in Lviv (Herbarium of Ivan Franko National University of Lviv (LW)), more than 100 specimens of Cytisus were identified and annotated with the names used by Schur in his publications or on his specimens. In addition, 10 lectotypes of taxa, described by Schur, were selected and designated (C. aggregatus, C. alpestris, C. ambiguus, C. atratus, C. leucotrichus, C. obvallatus, C. propinquus, C. ratisbonensis var. collina minor, C. supinus var. lateriflorus, C. supinus var. subcapitatus). Two new combinations, i.e. Chamaecytisus rochelii subsp. ambiguus (Schur) Pifkó and Chamaecytisus supinus subsp. alpestris (Schur) Pifkó are hereby proposed.
