A new species of Dianthus (Caryophyllaceae) from Antalya, South Anatolia, Turkey

Abstract

Dianthus multiflorus from Gazipaşa (Antalya), south Anatolia (Turkey), is described as a new annual species with verrucose calyx. The morphological differences from the species within the same group with Dianthus multiflorus, which are Dianthus aydogdui, Dianthus cyri and Dianthus tripunctatus, are discussed. The International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) threat category and observations on the ecology of the populations are noted. The karyology and seed micromorphology of Dianthus multiflorus and Dianthus tripunctatus were examined by light microscopy and scanning electron microscopy.

A New Suffruticose Taxon of Dianthus (Caryophyllaceae) from Bingöl, Turkey

“…With 84 species that have already grown in Turkey is the country where most of Dianthus species in the World (Post, 1896;Schischkin, 1936;Rechinger, 1964;1988;Tutin and Walters, 1993;Gemici and Leblebici, 1995;Menemen and Hamzaoğlu, 2000;Özhatay and Kültür, 2006;Vural, 2008;Yılmaz et al, 2011;İlçim et al, 2013;Hamzaoğlu et al, 2014;2015a;2015b;2015c;2017;2018;Hamzaoğlu and Koç, 2015;2018a;2018b;2019a;2019b;2019c;2019d;Deniz et al, 2016;Oskay, 2018;Hamzaoğlu, 2020;Koç, 2020). Turkey, this diversity-owned; It owes its wealth to habitat, which emerges as a result of its climatic, topographic and geological diversity (Davis, 1965;İlhan, 1976).…”

Lectotypification of Some Names in Dianthus L. (Caryophyllaceae)

“…In recent years, 16 new species and 4 new records were added to the Turkish Dianthus. On the other hand, it was determined that 5 species are not grown in Turkey (Gemici & Leblebici, 1995;Menemen & Hamzaoğlu, 2000;Özhatay & Kültür, 2006;Vural, 2008;Yılmaz et al, 2011;İlçim et al, 2013;Hamzaoğlu et al, 2014;2015a;2015b;2015c;2018;Hamzaoğlu & Koç, 2015;2018a;2018b;2019a;2019b;2019c;Deniz et al, 2016;Oskay, 2018). As a result of these studies, total species number of the genus Dianthus in Turkey has reached 82, of which 43 are endemic, so that the endemism rate is about 52 %.…”

DNA from Leaf or Stem: A Comparative Work on Dianthus L. for DNA Barcoding Analysis with Four Commercial Extraction Kits

“…Dianthus is native to Asia and Europe [23] and a few species are known from Africa and America [24]. It consists of 600 species, among which 78-84 species are recorded for flora of Turkey [25][26][27]. An ongoing research on barcoding of Dianthus taxa in Turkey and adjacent regions face to some challenges and gives some insights for methodology.…”
