“…The 2 other species, S. clusiana and S. vernalis, are considered very rare and were only found once, more than half a century ago (Wendelbo, 1985). We below provide a species key for the species discuss the current status of these species in the Kurdistan Region, provide photographs of living plants, and claim the emergency needs for their conservation: (Mathew, 1983(Mathew, , 1984Fernández Alonso, 1986;Morales & Castillo, 2004;Debussche & al., 2006;Peruzzi & al. 2008;Frignani & al., 2009;Dobignard & Chatelain 2010 Knapp.…”

“…For some authors, the lack of phylogenetic resolution (Gage & al., 2011), combined with the absence of morphological characters with diagnostic value (Gage & Wilkin, 2008), supports the idea that both S. sicula and S. greuteriana are conspecific with S. lutea, forming a species complex. For other authors, the morphology based on stable criteria -verified in natural, as well as in cultivated specimens (Kamari & Artelari, 1990;Pasche & Kerndorff, 2002;Peruzzi & al., 2008;Tison & Delaigue, 2010)-justify the recognition of 3 species in the complex.…”

Sternbergia is a genus containing mostly remarkable autum flowering taxa within Amaryllidaceae. Its distribution ranges from the Mediterranean region through the Irano-Anatolian region to Caucasus and Central Asia. In Flora of Iraq, the information about the occurrence, habitat, and distribution of its species is outdated or incomplete. The main aim of this study has been to contribute with new data from the field in order to update its status in the Kurdistan Region. Botanical field surveys were mostly carried out between 2013 and 2015 in autumn and spring. The main result of this study has been the occurrence of 3 species of Sternbergia: S. colchiciflora, which is reported in this study for the first time for the Kurdistan Region and therefore for Iraq; S. clusiana, which has been rediscovered in Iraq; and S. vernalis, which has been found again in the Berwarya Mountains, after being considered a lost species in Iraq over the last 80 years. These 3 observed species occur in the mountains of Amadiya District, making this area the richest territory for Sternbergia in the country. Due to certain factors that currently threaten their natural habitats, they are rare species and could be regarded as potentially endangered at regional level according to the IUCN criteria. Sternbergia contiene, sobre todo, extraordinarios táxones con floración otoñal de las amarilidáceas. Su distribución abarca desde la región mediterránea, a través de la región irano-anatólica, hasta el Cáucaso y el Asia central. En la Flora de Iraq, la información sobre la presencia, el hábitat y la distribución de sus especies está obsoleta o incompleta. El principal objetivo de este trabajo ha sido contribuir con datos nuevos tomados en el campo a actualizar su estatus en la Región del Kurdistán. Las expediciones botánicas al campo fueron llevadas a cabo entre los años 2013 y 2015, durante el otoño y la primavera. El principal resultado de este estudio ha sido la localización de 3 especies de Sternbergia: S. colchiciflora, que ha sido citada por primera vez en este estudio para la región del Kurdistán y, por tanto, para Iraq; S. clusiana, que ha sido redescubierta en Iraq; y S. vernalis, que se ha encontrado de nuevo en las Montañas Berwarya, después de que se haya considerado extinta en Iraq durante los últimos 80 años. Estas 3 especies viven en las montañas del distrito de Amadia y hacen de esta área el territorio más rico en especies de Sternbergia del país. Debido a ciertos factores que amenazan actualmente sus hábitats naturales, estas especies son raras y podrían ser consideradas potencialmente amenazadas a nivel regional de acuerdo con los criterios de la UICN.

In this paper, we report a remarkable population of the rare plant Sternbergia colchiciflora found along a busy road section in the downtown of county seat Veszprém (W-Hungary). The population contains at least 7000 individuals and spreads across fifteen grassy traffic islands. Regarding the position of individuals, their relative distance from the road/sidewalk within the traffic islands differed significantly from a hypothetical uniform distribution, with higher number of individuals situated close to the island edges than expected by chance. Besides this rare bulbous plant, several other dry grassland specialist plant species were also found in these habitat patches, e.g., Astragalus austriacus, Festuca rupicola, Filipendula vulgaris, Muscari neglectum, Petrorhagia saxifraga, Potentilla arenaria, Ranunculus illyricus, Salvia nemorosa, Sanguisorba minor, Teucrium chamaedrys, Thesium linophyllon, Verbascum phoeniceum and Vinca herbacea. The origin of these dry grassland plants in this highly disturbed urban environment is uncertain; possibly, they were introduced ca. 15 years ago in the course of earthworks during the construction of the road. Recent management (frequent and motorized lawn mowing) seems to favor the Sternbergia colchiciflora, while the habitat is currently not directly threatened. Unfortunately, the potential for local conservation appears to be highly limited.
