A New Species

An attractive and interesting new species, Muscari savranii Uysal & Doğu (Asparagaceae) is described and illustrated from central Anatolia, Turkey. A complete morphological description, detailed photographs, and a distribution map are reported for the new species, including an identification key for related species. Muscari savranii grows on the inclined limestone slopes in the province of Kayseri, Turkey. The closest species appears to be Muscari tenuiflorum Tausch, a member of the subgenus Leopoldia (Parl.) Rouy. In this study, diagnostic micro-macro morphological characters are discussed and compared with related taxa. Moreover, M. savranii is characterized in terms of its chromosomal features and a comparison with its relatives is given.

A New Species

A new species of freshwater Amphipod, Gammarus topkarai sp. nov., collected from Ivriz Creek, Tarsus Province, South Anatolia, is described and illustrated. The new species belongs to Gammarus pulex-group and shows similar characteristic features with Gammarus agrarius G. S. Karaman, 1973. Absence of well developed dorsal elevations on the urosome segments, smaller body length and relatively lower endopod/exopod ratio of third uropod are the most obvious features differ from G. agrarius. A detailed morphological description and illustrations of new species are given and differences from related species are discussed. An updated identification key of Gammarus taxa reported from Turkey, up to date, was also presented.

In this paper, a new species, Muscari tauricum sp. nov. is described and illustrated from Southern Turkey. It has similar morphological characters to M. aucheri and M. bourgaei except for its broad and several leaves, pyramidal raceme, patent and longer pedicels, small fertile flowers, and early flowering time that distinguish the new species from other Muscari species. A complete morphological description and illustration are given, including comments on karyotypes. The morphological differences among the new species and related species are also discussed.

A New Species

The species of Centris of the hyptidis group are revised. The group, composed by C. hyptidis Ducke, C. hyptidoides Roig-Alsina, and C. thelyopsis n. sp., exhibits unique morphological characters within the genus, like foreand midtrochanters with a laminar expansion at the base, and elaiospathes strongly modified. An updated catalog, and floral and distributional records are provided for each species, as well as an identification key and a distribution map. The male of C. hyptidoides is described for the first time and a modern diagnosis for C. hyptidis is presented. A new species, C. thelyopsis n. sp., is described from Goiás State, in central Brazil. It can be easily distinguished from the two previously known species by its predominant orange pilosity, including that of the hind legs and metasoma.

Onobrychis farimanensis is described as a new species and an identification key, illustrations and distribution map provided. The new species is restricted to the north Zharf Mountains between Fariman and Torbat-e Heydarieh, in the Khorasan Razavi Province of Iran. It is a perennial herb, becoming woody at the base and has long wing petals, standard as long as the keel, and pods loosely covered by appressed hairs. The new species differs from morphologically similar taxa, O. alamutensis and O. major, in several morphological characters such as plant height, stem indumentum, leaflet length and indumentum, bract length, calyx length, corolla colour, and pod size and shape.

A New Species

Maraenobiotus wellsi sp. nov. (Canthocamptidae) is described based on material collected in mosses in the “páramo” region of the Andean Cordillera of Colombia. The new species is closely related to M. australis Apostolov, 2001 from Tierra de Fuego in Argentina, but can be distiguished by the shape of the caudal rami, the insertion point of its terminal seta IV, and the chaetotaxy of distal segments of legs 3 and 4. We discuss morphological differences with other congeners inhabiting South America (Peru), i.e. M. naticochensis Delachaux, 1917, M. fontinalis Harding, 1955 and M. fontinaloides Löffler, 1960. Major distinguishing features were observed in the chaetotaxy of legs 2 and 3, the morphology and size of the caudal rami, and the ornamentation of the anal operculum. We also discuss morphological characters that distinguish the new species from those living exclusively in mosses, such as M. cuspidatus Štěrba, 1968 and M. canadensis Flössner, 1992, and those reported from mosses and other habitats i.e.. M. vejdovskyi Mrázek, 1893, M. brucei brucei (Richard, 1898), M. zschokkei Kreis, 1920, M. brucei himalayensis Chappuis, 1928b, M. truncatus (Gurney, 1932), M. insignipes elgonensis Chappuis, 1936, M. insignipes nepalensis Löffler, 1968 and M. kinabaluensis Löffler, 1973. A distribution map of American species and an identification key for females are provided.

A New Species

Noccaea atila-ocakii is described as a new species from Eskisehir, Turkey. Morphologically, it is similar to N. antitaurica and N. lilacina, but it is easily distinguished by several morphological characters, including the size of its basal leaves, shape of its cauline leaves and fruit, length of its style, number of ovules, etc. Phylogenetic relationships, based on the nuclear-encoded ribosomal internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region, within the genus are shown. Molecular data reveal that new species clearly differs from N. antitaurica and N. lilacina. Paraphyletic taxa in the phylogenetic tree also indicate that the generic circumscription of Noccaea by Al-Shehbaz is more convenient compared with previous delimitations of this genus. Diagnostic characters, a detailed description, and photographs of the new species are given; the IUCN Red List category and observations on the ecology of the populations are noted; and the distribution map of the new species and its closely related species in Turkey are presented.

A new species of Arabis L. (Brassicaceae), A. erecta Y.Y. Kim & C.G. Jang, was discovered in Gyeongsangbuk-do Province, Republic of Korea and is described and illustrated here. The species is similar to A. stelleri DC. and A. takesimana Nakai in its general vegetative and floral morphology. However, the new species is distinguished by its glabrous leaves surface, not inflated receptacle, and fruiting pedicels and siliques appressed to the rachis. In addition, the diagnostic characters between related species, an identification key, and a distribution map are provided.

Bellevalia behcetii (Asparagaceae) is described and illustrated as a new species from Şırnak province in South Eastern Anatolia (Turkey). It is morphologically similar to B. paradoxa but easily differs in several morphological characters. Diagnostic morphological characters, a full description and detailed illustrations of the new species are provided. A quantitative morphometric analysis was carried out to check the diagnostic characters of Bellevalia behcetii with respect to morphologically related species. The somatic chromosome number was determined as 2n = 2x = 8 in B. behcetii. In addition, the ecology and phenology of the new species, as well as its etymology and the pollen characteristics, are presented and discussed. The conservation status of B. behcetii was assessed according to IUCN protocol. A distribution map of B. behcetii and related species is also presented.
