SOME MORPHOLOGICAL VARIATIONS IN SCROPHULARIA SUBAEQILOBA LALL (SCROPHULARIACEAE) RELATED TO HABITAT

Öz

Scrophularia subaeqiloba Lall (Scrophulariaceae) is an endemic species proper to the Munzur Mountains which actually grows in calcareous areas. In this study, it has been determined the populations of the species which grow on serpentine from the Kesis Mountain in Erzincan. The specimens growing on serpentine has some morphological differences from the Munzur specimens. These differences have been thought to belong to a new taxon but after a profound study, it has been reached the fact that these differences are the variations depending on the habitat of Scrophularia subaeqiloba.
