Typification and taxonomy of Thymus carstiensis (Lamiaceae)

Abstract

The name Thymus dalmaticus var. carstiensis, basionym of Th. carstiensis, is here lectotypified. This taxon is currently regarded as the hybrid between Th. longicaulis and Th. pulegioides or as a synonym of Th. serpyllum. A morphological comparison among Th. dalmaticus var. carstiensis and its putative parental species are performed. A detailed morphological description and information about habitat, phenology, distribution and taxonomy are provided. Furthermore, Th. carstiensis is here recorded for the first time from Slovenia. © 2017 Società Botanica Italiana
