Ledebouria viridis S.R.Dutta & P.Harvey ex M.R.Almeida (2009:187)
Taxonomy & Nomenclature
Synonyms: Scilla viridis Blatt. & Hallb. in J. Indian Bot. 2: 52 (1921), nom. illeg.; Ledebouria junnarensis S.S.Rahangdale & S.R.Rahangdale in J. Threat. Taxa 8: 8424 (2016), nom. superfl.

Missing (Nayar & Sastry, 1987:188; Giranje & Nandikar, 2016) or Rediscovered (Rahangdale & Rahangdale, 2016)
Last record: March 1919 (Giranje & Nandikar, 2016) or later
Rahangdale & Rahangdale (2016) reported the rediscovery of this species under the superfluous name L. junnarensis (see Giranje & Nandikar, 2016), but the latter publication which cites the former states that the species has not been recorded since its discovery, therby implicitly rejecting the claimed rediscovery.
