Pastinaca erzincanensis Menemen & Kandemir (Apiaceae) is described as a new species, restricted to a single location in Erzincan Province, Turkey. To describe the species and assess its phylogenetic placement, field-collected and herbarium specimens were examined for morphological, fruit anatomical/micromorphological and palynological variation and included in a molecular phylogenetic study. Comparisons of leaf morphology, palynology and fruit anatomy suggest an affinity with Pastinaca (Tordylieae tribe Tordyliinae), although the presence of vittae in the fruit ribs is unique within the genus. Maximum parsimony and maximum likelihood analyses of nrDNA ITS sequences from representative members of tribe Tordylieae show that P. erzincanensis nests within a well-supported clade comprising members of Pastinaca, Malabaila and Trigonoscia dium. Within a poorly supported Pastinaca s. lato clade, P. erzincanensis is sister group to M. pastinacifolia, with P. pimpinellifolia, P. yildizii and M. brachytaenia placed as successive sister taxa. Pastinaca erzincanensis differs from M. pastinacifolia, P. pimpi nellifolia, P. yildizii and M. brachytaenia by having nine vittae on its dorsal mericarp surface (four vallecular and five rib vittae) and no commissural vittae. Based on characters of leaf morphology, palynology and fruit anatomy, and the molecular phylogenetic analysis results, we recognize the new species as belonging to the genus Pastinaca.
A taxonomic revision of the genus Anthriscus (Apiaceae) in Turkey
Phytotaxa, 2017
A taxonomic revision of Anthriscus (Apiaceae, tribe Scandiceae) in Turkey was carried out. The genus Anthriscus is represented by four sections and eight taxa, including six species with three non-typical infraspecific taxa in that territory, grouped into four sections: i) A. sect. Anthriscus (A. caucalis var. caucalis and A. tenerrima var. tenerrima); ii) A. sect. Cerefolium (A. cerefolium var. trichocarpa); iii) A. sect. Caroides (A. kotschyi); and iv) A. sect. Cacosciadium (A. lamprocarpa subsp. lamprocarpa, A. lamprocarpa subsp. chelikii, A. sylvestris subsp. sylvestris and A. sylvestris subsp. nemorosa). A new taxon, A. lamprocarpa subsp. chelikii, was found and published as a preliminary result of the present revisionary study. Some new characters such as length of filament and petal, and the ratio of fruit length to its beak length are used in the identification key for the first time. New localities of some taxa were found and their distribution areas are expanded. According to all morphological findings on Turkish Anthriscus, a new description of the genus was carried out. The taxonomic treatments for all taxa include type, synonyms (when present), morphological descriptions, phenology, and distribution areas (worldwide and local), habitats, phytogeographic region, conservation assessment and specimens examined. A new identification key for the sections and all Turkish species of the genus Anthriscus is reported, and illustrations and distribution maps in Turkey are also given for eight taxa.
Prangos Abieticola (Apiaceae), a New Species from South Anatolia, Turkey
Edinburgh Journal of Botany, 2016
Prangos abieticola Aytaç & H.Duman (Apiaceae) from southern Anatolia, Turkey is described and illustrated. This new taxon grows on calcareous rocks in open Abies cilicica (Antoine & Kotschy) Carrière and Pinus nigra J.F.Arnold subsp. nigra var. caramanica (Loudon) Rehder forest in the middle of the Taurus Mountains (C3 Antalya and Konya Province). It is endemic and closely related to Prangos heyniae H.Duman & M.F.Watson and P. ferulacea (L.) Lindl. The diagnostic morphological characters of similar taxa are discussed.
Anthriscus lamprocarpa subsp. chelikii (Apiaceae), a new subspecies from southern Turkey
Phytotaxa, 2016
During the revisionary study of members of the genus Anthriscus (Apiaceae) distributed in Turkey, we came across a taxon of the section Cacosciadium. In the morphological studies, the principal characteristics of this plant suggested that it belonged to A. lamprocarpa. However, some considerable morphological differences were found, such as filament length and fruit size and surface characteristics, which clearly differed from those of the typical A. lamprocarpa. On the basis of the longer filament, longer and narrower fruits, dimorphic ornamentation of fruit surface, and also the lack of lacquered fruit surface, we describe a new subspecies, A. lamprocarpa subsp. chelikii, which is distributed in southern Turkey. Diagnostic characteristics with regard to other taxa within A. sect. Cacosciadium are discused.
Peucedanum akaliniae (Apiaceae), a new species from Southern Turkey
Phytotaxa, 2019
Peucedanum akaliniae is described as a new species from Southern Turkey. It is similar to P. graminifolium, P. longifolium, P. ruthenicum and P. guvenianum. Diagnostic morphological characters are represented and compared with closely related species. It differs from related taxa by having long petioles with long fibrous collar, pinnate leaves, opposite-verticillate inflorescence, unequal rays and pedicels, number of bracts and white flowers, oblong-ovat fruit shape, dorsal vittae regularly 1–2 per vallecula and ribs, 1–3 vittae in the lateral wings and costas.
Peucedanum ozhatayiorum(Apiaceae), a New Species from NE Turkey
Annales Botanici Fennici, 2010
Peucedanum ozhatayiorum Akpulat & E. Akalın is described and illustrated as a new species from northeast Anatolia, Turkey. It is similar to P. caucasicum and P. longibracteolatum but differs from them by having a slender, scabroid stem; scabroid leaves; a fibrous collar; deciduous bracts; persistent unequal bracteoles; green-purple petals; and up to 10 vittae in the dorsal side of mericarps.
Prangos hulusii sp. nov. (Apiaceae) from West Anatolia, Turkey
Nordic Journal of Botany, 2011
Prangos hulusii S. G. Şenol, H. Yıldırım & Ö. Seçmen (Apiaceae) is described as a new species from Izmir province (West Anatolia, Turkey). Latin diagnosis, taxonomic description, and an illustration of the new species are provided. The novelity is compared with the related species P. ilanae, P. turcica, P. trifida and P. odontalgica. Geographic distributions of the new species and other related species are mapped.
