Current Nomenclature And Systematics Of Capsella Medik. With Lectotypifications:Towards Solving The Puzzle, Yelda Güzel Jan 2022

Current Nomenclature And Systematics Of Capsella Medik. With Lectotypifications:Towards Solving The Puzzle, Yelda Güzel

Turkish Journal of Botany

The taxonomic history of Capsella Medik., one of the genera with the highest phenotypic plasticity, and thus the highest synonym number relative to the recognized species number, was reviewed. The current systematics of the genus was discussed and the exact number of taxa was determined. In light of the molecular and nomenclatural data, it was decided that the genus was represented around the world by five species and one hybrid. Considering the molecular studies that have been conducted over the 30 years it was concluded that the species of this genus are typical examples of the concept of cryptic species. …


Nomenclatural Adjustments For Hybrids Of The Former Inula L. Within Pentanema Cass.(Asteraceae), Alexey P. Seregin Jan 2021

Nomenclatural Adjustments For Hybrids Of The Former Inula L. Within Pentanema Cass.(Asteraceae), Alexey P. Seregin

Turkish Journal of Botany

Drastic recircumscription of Pentanema (Asteraceae) has resulted in transfers of many species from Inula, whereas hybrids with binomials have not received new combinations yet. However, names for interspecific hybrids of Inula auct. are in active current use, and a dozen nothospecies are regularly mentioned in floras, checklists, and research papers. I have facilitated 12 new combinations for nothospecies in Pentanema: P. ×adriaticum (Borbás) Seregin (P. hirtum × P. spiraeifolium), P. ×haussmannii (Huter) Seregin (P. ensifolium × P. hirtum), P. ×hispidum (Schur) Seregin (P. asperum × P. hirtum), P. ×hybridum (Baumg.) Seregin (P. ensifolium × P. germanicum), P. ×litorale (Borbás) Seregin …


An Integrated Approach To The Study Of Hypericum Occurring In Sicily, Antonio Giovino, Alessandra Carrubba, Silvia Lazzara, Edoardo Napoli, Gianniantonio Domina Jan 2020

An Integrated Approach To The Study Of Hypericum Occurring In Sicily, Antonio Giovino, Alessandra Carrubba, Silvia Lazzara, Edoardo Napoli, Gianniantonio Domina

Turkish Journal of Botany

An integrated approach to the study of taxa of the genus Hypericum occurring in Sicily is proposed. The results of morphological, biochemical, and molecular analyses are combined to better assess the relationships between the species investigated and test the suitability of DNA barcoding technique in the discrimination of these taxa. For the name Hypericum aegypticum subsp. webbii (Spach) N. Robson a lectotype is designated. For Hypericum triquetrifolium Turra a lectotype and a supporting epitype are designated. The presence of Hypericum perforatum L. subsp. perforatum is excluded from Sicily and the previous reports have to be referred to H. perforatum subsp. …


A Contribution To The Taxonomy Of Zoegea (Asteraceae, Cardueae?Centaureinae), Kazem Negaresh, Mohammad Reza Rahiminejad Jan 2019

A Contribution To The Taxonomy Of Zoegea (Asteraceae, Cardueae?Centaureinae), Kazem Negaresh, Mohammad Reza Rahiminejad

Turkish Journal of Botany

A worldwide taxonomic revision and the relevant lectotypifications of Zoegea L. (Asteraceae) are presented. The recognized taxa, the relevant synonyms, type details, images of the type specimen, examined specimen lists, and a taxonomic key are provided for this genus. The geographic distribution of all recognized taxa is presented and tabulated. Zoegea leptaurea L. subsp. leptaurea for the floras of Iran and Saudi Arabia and also Z. purpurea Fresen. for the flora of Iraq are reported as new here.


Taxonomic And Nomenclatural Contributions To Pyrus L. (Rosaceae) From Turkey, Zübeyde Uğurlu Aydin, Ali̇ Aslan Dönmez Jan 2015

Taxonomic And Nomenclatural Contributions To Pyrus L. (Rosaceae) From Turkey, Zübeyde Uğurlu Aydin, Ali̇ Aslan Dönmez

Turkish Journal of Botany

This paper presents a taxonomic contribution to the genus Pyrus L. P. Georgica and P. Pseudosyriaca are reported from Turkey for the first time. The status of P. Pseudosyriaca is discussed and it is treated as a new variety of Pyrus syriaca. Notes on the chorology, morphological descriptions, figures, and taxonomy are provided. Moreover, P. Serikensis and P. Boissieriana are reduced to synonyms of P. Cordata. An endemic subspecies, P. Elaeagrifolia subsp. Kotschyana, is compared with the related species P. Elaeagrifolia and it is reassessed at the species level based on morphology and distribution. With these changes, Pyrus is represented …


Taxonomic Update Of Adenocalymma (Bignoniaceae): Emendations, New Synonyms, Typifications, And Status Change, Renata Udulutsch, Marco Antonio Assis, Pedro Dias Jan 2013

Taxonomic Update Of Adenocalymma (Bignoniaceae): Emendations, New Synonyms, Typifications, And Status Change, Renata Udulutsch, Marco Antonio Assis, Pedro Dias

Turkish Journal of Botany

A recent taxonomic treatment of Adenocalymma resulted in nomenclatural changes associated with 47 names and 24 species. Seven emendations, 16 new synonyms, 29 typifications (24 of which are lectotypifications), 4 neotypifications, 1 epitypification, and 1 status change are proposed. Emendations are related primarily to the first description of the fruit of Adenocalymma dichilum, A. divaricatum, A. fruticosum, A. hypostictum, A. macrophyllum, A. salmoneum, and A. scabriusculum. A variety of Adenocalymma, A. marginatum var. apterospermum, has been raised to the rank of species (A. apterospermum).


A New Species Of Gypsophila And A New Name For Silene (Caryophyllaceae) From Turkey, Ergi̇n Hamzaoğlu Jan 2012

A New Species Of Gypsophila And A New Name For Silene (Caryophyllaceae) From Turkey, Ergi̇n Hamzaoğlu

Turkish Journal of Botany

Gypsophila turcica Hamzaoğlu is described as a new species. The specimen was collected from gypsaceous hills, at an altitude between 1755 and 1835 m from Zara District (Sivas Province). The new species is similar to Gypsophila festucifolia Hub.-Mor. The differences between these 2 taxa are discussed. Moreover, Silene choruhensis Hamzaoğlu nom. nova should replace S. ispirensis A.P.Khokhr. 1997, which is an illegitimate name as a younger homonym of S. ispirensis Boiss. 1856.


Bryophytes Of Turkey: An Annotated Reference List Of The Species With Synonyms From The Recent Literature And An Annotated List Of Turkish Bryological Literature, Harald Kürschner, Adnan Erdağ Jan 2005

Bryophytes Of Turkey: An Annotated Reference List Of The Species With Synonyms From The Recent Literature And An Annotated List Of Turkish Bryological Literature, Harald Kürschner, Adnan Erdağ

Turkish Journal of Botany

Based on published records, in Turkey 3 species of Anthocerotopsida, 163 species and intraspecific taxa of Hepaticopsida and 721 species and intraspecific taxa of Bryopsida are recognised. They are listed in alphabetical order in a reference list to achieve a certain standardisation in the use of names. Including synonyms, in total 1731 names are treated. Critical taxa, doubtful records or taxonomical remarks are briefly discussed in 77 annotations. In addition, an up-to-date list of 219 references (from 1829 to January 2004) on the bryological literature of Turkey is given. The references are annotated and provide information on content, especially on …
