Presence of Dianthus glutinosus in Turkey and new variety of this species

Abstract

Marmara, Ege ve Akdeniz bölgelerinden toplanmış örneklerin teşhisi ve ilgili literatürlerin incelenmesi sonucu Flora of Turkey and the East Aegean Islands Türkiye Florası adlı eserde verilen Dianthus corymbosus Sibth. & Sm. ve D. pubescens Sibth. & Sm. ile Flora Hellenica’da verilen D. glutinosus Boiss. & Heldr. arasındaki taksonomik ve korolojik ilişkiler belirlendi. İnceleme sonucu, D. corymbosus’un bir Yunanistan endemiği, D. pubescens’in ise yine bir Yunanistan endemiği olan D. diffusus Sm. altında sinonim olduğu anlaşılmıştır. Türkiye Florası’nda D. corymbosus ve D. pubescens olarak verilen örneklerin ise D. glutinosus Boiss. & Heldr. olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Ayrıca, Çanakkale Gökçeada’dan toplanmış bazı örneklerde çiçek durumunun salgı tüylü, alt kısmın ise tamamen tüysüz olduğu tespit edildi. Diğer karakterler bakımından benzer olduğu için, bu örneklerin D. glutinosus altında “var. gokceadaensis Hamzaoğlu & Koç” olarak adlandırılmasına karar verildi

Presence of Dianthus glutinosus in Turkey and new variety of this species

Abstract

The taxonomic and corologic relations between Dianthus corymbosus and D. pubescens, which are mentioned in Flora of Turkey and the East Aegean Islands Flora of Turkey , and D. glutinosus, which is mentioned in Flora Hellenica, were diagnosed with identification of plant specimens collected from Marmara, Ege and Akdeniz Regions and review of related literature data. As a result of observations and evaluations, it is understood that D. corymbosus is endemic to Greece and D. pubescens is synonymous with D. diffusus which is also endemic to Greece. In addition, it is determined that the species which are named as D. corymbosus and D. pubescens in Flora of Turkey are D. glutinosus. Moreover, it is identified that inflorescence is glandular hairy and lower part is glabrous of some samples collected from Gökçeada Çanakkale . Accordingly, these samples are decided to be named as “var. gokceadaensis” under D. glutinosus since having similarities in terms of other characters
