Abstract
Some Dianthus specimens collected from Sakarya and Bolu Provinces (Turkey) provinces are proposed as a new species. Dianthus nezahatiae Hamzaoğlu (Caryophyllaceae) is naturally distributed in subalpine meadow
habitats between the altitude range of 1450 and 1620 m a.s.l. Dianthus nezahatiae is differed from D. akdaghensis Gemici et Leblebici in respect to its inner bracts are 1.7−2.1 mm wide, the apex of the epicalyx scales is attenuate–rounded, the petal collar is almost half of
the claw width, and the capsule is longer than calyx. In this paper description of the species, comparison with its close taxon, photographs, the distribution map, and its habitat preference are given.
期刊介绍:
The interest of the journal is field (terrestrial and aquatic) and experimental botany (including microorganisms, plant viruses, bacteria, unicellular algae), from subcellular level to ecosystems. The attention of the Journal is aimed to the research of karstic areas of the southern Europe, karstic waters and the Adriatic Sea (Mediterranean).
