Abstract

Some specimens collected from Kars, Ardahan and Artvin were identified as Senecio kubensis Grossh and S. massagetovii Schischk which had been previously described in Azerbaijan and Georgia. As a result of examination of the type specimens and after evaluating of the literatures, S. massagetovii and S. kubensis were determined as identical specimens and S. massagetovii was reduced to as a synonym of S. kubensis. S. kubensis which is a new record for Turkey, S. munzurdaglarensis Yıld. which was recently described from Tunceli and S. farfarifolius Boiss. & Kotschy which had been formerly transferred as invalid was transferred to the genus Turanecio Hamzaoğlu based on their taxonomic characters such as the thickish rhizome, the short-sagittate anther bases, and the style branches with papillate lower surface, and in possessing a persistent pappus

Abstract

Kars, Ardahan ve Artvin’den toplanan bazı örneklerin, Azerbaycan ve Gürcistan’dan tanımlanan Senecio kubensis Grossh. ile S. massagetovii Schischk. olduğu tespit edildi. Tip örneklerin ve ilgili literatürün incelenmesi sonucu S. massagetovii ile S. kubensis’in aynı olduğu belirlendi ve S. massagetovii'nin S. kubensis'in sinonimi olduğu değerlendirildi. Türkiye için yeni kayıt olan S. kubensis, son zamanlarda Tunceli’den tanımlanan S. munzurdaglarensis Yıld. ve daha önce geçersiz bir şekilde aktarılmış olan S. farfarifolius Boiss. & Kotschy rizomlarının kalınlaşmış, anter tabanlarının kısa-sagittat, stilus dalları alt yüzeylerinin papillalı ve pappuslarının kalıcı olması gibi taksonomik karakterlere dayanılarak Turanecio Hamzaoğlu cinsine aktarıldı
