Abstract

Some interesting plant samples collected from Samandağ district of Hatay province were examined and it was determined that these specimens belong to Dorycnium hirsutum var. syriacum. Its status in the Flora of Turkey is mentioned as suspicious. In this study, it is stated that the Dorycnium hirsutum species should be divided into two distinct varieties as Dorycnium hirsutum var. hirsutum and Dorycnium hirsutum var. syriacum to investigate the morphological, taxonomic and palynological features of these taxa. Diagnostic characters and detailed descriptions of taxa and species identification key are given and IUCN categories are proposed.

Türkiye’deki Dorycnium hirsutum (Fabaceae) Taksonlarına Sistematik Katkılar

Abstract

Yapılan arazi incelemeleri sırasında Hatay-Samandağ bölgesinde toplanan bazı bitki örneklerinin, Türkiye florasında varlığından şüpheli olarak bahsedilen Dorycnium hirsutum var. syriacum olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Bu çalışmada Dorycnium hirsutum türünün Dorycnium hirsutum var. hirsutum ve Dorycnium hirsutum var. syriacum olmak üzere iki varyeteye ayrılması gerektiği belirtilmiş, taksonların morfolojik, taksonomik ve palinolojik özellikleri araştırılmıştır. Taksonlara ait ayırt edici karakterler, ayrıntılı betimlemeler ile tür teşhis anahtarı verilmiş ve IUCN kategorileri önerilmiştir.
