Abstract: Trifolium elazizense, a new species of Trifolium sect. Trifolium from East Anatolia in Turkey is described. It grows in subalpine regions with steep slopes and shallow soil at high altitudes. The new species is morphologically close to T. longidentatum and T. kurdistanicum, and can be considered a member of the new subsect. Stipulia. Trifolium elazizense is characterized by hairy stipules, the throat of calyx closed by callus hairs, inflorescences without bracts, obviously unequal calyx teeth, longest tooth 3-… Show more

Vicia freyniana Bornm.subsp. gigantean (gigantic wild vetch), which has been collected from Karakoçan district (Elazığ-Türkiye), has been defined as new subspecies for the scientific world. New subspecies; it differs from the typical subspecies primarily in terms of indumentum characteristics, large plant size, leaf and leaflet sizes, inflorescence features, inflorescence/leaf length ratio, flower parts and seed sizes.Vicia freyniana Bornm. subsp. gigantea grows mostly in oak forest shades and sometimes in oak forest openings. This newly defined subspecies; description, ecological preferences, distribution map and photographs were given.

In this study, the pollen morphology of 5 species (Trifolium boissieri Guss. ex-Soy. -Will. & Godr., T. dasyurum C.Presl, T. pauciflorum d'Urv., T. scabrum L., and T. spumosum L.) belonging to the genus Trifolium L. from the Fabaceae family, distributed in Şanlıurfa province, was examined with light and electron microscopes. Within the framework of the palynological study, pollen shapes, ornamentations, pore and colpus lengths and widths were determined and their measurements were given. Pollen grains are generally monad in structure, have trizonocolporate aperture, and subprolate to prolate-spheroidal shape. Ornamentation generally shows significant differences in polar and equatorial regions. In the pollen grains examined, perforate, psilate-perforate, and reticulate ornamentation is seen in the polar region, while microreticulate and reticulate ornamentation is dominant in the equatorial region. While the polar axis lengths were determined to be between 38.67-29.19 μm on average, the equatorial axis length was determined to be between 33.79-23.45 μm on average. As a result of the study, it was determined that characters such as pollen shape, pollen size, and surface ornamentation differed among species and these were the characters that could have taxonomic value in the systematic distinction of species.

Allium decumbens Balos & Sonay is described as a new species from Elazığ Province, Eastern Türkiye. It is an endemic serpentine species that grows on the slopes at an altitude of 2160–2300 m above sea level on the Hazarbaba Mountain in the Sivrice district of Elazığ Province. Based on morphological features, it belongs in Allium subgen. Allium sect. Allium. Allium decumbens is quite different from other species in the section with some of its features. It is morphologically similar to A. murat-sonayii Balos, Sonay & C.Çeçen. However, it clearly differs from A. murat-sonayii by its leaf structure, tunic type, larger bulb, short and decumbent stem, number and shape of leaves, different sheath structure, longer pedicels, umbel structure with radial symmetry, and smooth inner and outer tepals. Herein, the morphology of A. decumbens, a comprehensive description, detailed photographs, habitat and ecological characteristics, and IUCN conservation assessment are provided.
