“…Leopoldia maritima occurs on the southern coasts of the Mediterranean Basin, from Morocco to Lebanon (Euro+Med 2006-2014. The chromosome number 2n = 18 found here is in accordance with the only previous count we were able to find, made on cultivated plants of unspecified origin (Garbari & Di Martino 1972).…”

“…Concerning Muscari maritimum , the chromosome number 2n = 18 was previously quoted by Garbari and Di Martino (1972) for specimens with unspecified origin. It is also quoted by Troìa et al (2014) for one Tunisian population at the Cap Bon.…”

“…However, in our knowledge, the karyotype structure of Muscari maritimum is reported here for the first time. It would be related to that of Muscari gussonei (Parlatore) Todaro, 1872, an endemic species to Sicily (Garbari and Di Martino 1972, Davis and Stuart 1980). The karyotype of this species consists of 10 large and 8 small chromosomes (Ruiz Rejón et al 1985).…”

Karyological investigations were carried out on four species of Bellevalia Lapeyrouse, 1808 and Muscari Miller, 1758 (Asparagaceae) sampled in contrasting bioclimatic conditions of Algeria. The endemic Bellevalia mauritanica Pomel, 1874 was found to have a tetraploid cytotype 2n = 4x = 16 and an octoploid 2n = 8x = 32 which is a new report. The chromosome number 2n = 2x = 18 in Muscari comosum (Linnaeus, 1753) Miller, 1768 and Muscari maritimum Desfontaines, 1798 was in conformity with earlier reports. The latter species reveals a lesser bimodality of the karyotype. Within Muscari neglectum Gussone ex Tenore, 1842 pentaploid (2n = 5x = 45), hexaploid (2n = 6x = 54) and very rare octoploid cytotype (2n = 8x = 72) have been reported in Algeria. Principal component analysis performed on basis of karyotype parameters, showed a segregation of the different cytotypes. This study provides new karyological information, which is discussed in a taxonomic context.
