Contributions to Genus Astragalus L. (Fabaceae) in Turkey

Abstract

In this study, the new arrangements of three Astragalus species were given, that is endemic in Turkey. Astragalus physodes subsp. acikirensis (sect. Cystium) was raised to the species level; Astragalus darendensis was reduced to synonym of Astragalus scabrifolius (sect. Incani) and Astragalus tuna-ekimii was reduced to synonym of Astragalus chamaephaca (sect. Macrosemium). Comments are provided on the relevent taxa about their taxonomic positions by examining the recollected samples and the type samples.
