... the description of the subspecies, H. pseuderiopus subsp. nikolae Zahn, the same author pointed out that its habitus is quite similar to "H. sabaudi subsp. vagi". This is already noticeable at first glance, but also on the basis of minute morphological details such as the presence of very long fimbriate receptacular scales in some individuals ( Fig. 1), so the new putative hybridogenous combination would be H. sparsum-sabaudum. Since H. sabaudum L. belongs to a separate section compared to H. racemosum Waldst. & Kit. ex Willd., it is quite justified to treat this taxon as a separate microspecies. Due to its partly amplexicaul leaves, it resembles some representatives of the aggregate ...

It grows on rocky places (red sandstone and slates) in the zone of subalpine spruce (1000-1840 m s.m.), along the edge of the forest or often on completely open pasture slopes. It was also found in the central part of the mountain near the main peak (Midžor), on the Vojvodin Venac -Žarkova Čuka peaks stretch (Fig. 14). More than 1000 mature individuals were found in the population. PR [photo!] image available at ...

... In Serbia, the presence of P. tragium subsp. polyclada (Boiss. & Heldr.) Tutin was reported in the upper zone of Mt Ostrozub, in SE Serbia (Nikolić & Diklić 1986). Recently, one more subspecies, P. tragium subsp. tragium, was recorded as a new taxon for the flora of Serbia. This subspecies occurs in a relatively large population on Mt Rudina (Fig. 21), in the extreme southeast of the country. In the new locality, the optimal habitats for this plant are limestone rocks and screes, as well as open steppe pastures formed on a shallow limestone substrate, at lower altitudes (Fig 4). Another taxon, P. tragium subsp. lithophila (Schischk.) Tutin, which differs from the type subspecies by ...

In relation to C. indurata its phyllaries are less numerous and have shorter, wider and less curved appendages (Fig 6). In NE Serbia C. pugioniformis grows only in several localities in Đerdap gorge (Fig. 14) area and it was firstly and previously preliminary announced by Niketić (2010). It most often inhabits rocky places around the edges of thermophilic forests with Quercus spp. and Carpinus orientalis. The three newly recorded localities of C. pugioniformis in Đerdap gorge represent the southernmost distributional findings of the species ...

Until now, it was known as a local endemite from SW Carpathians (Mt Retezat and Mt Godeanu), and after Nyárády (1965), it was almost never mentioned in botanical publications. In E Serbia ( Fig. 14) it also grows in the subalpine (spruce) zone on silicate substrate, on moist rocks next to mountain streams. Record from Serbia was initially announced by Niketić (2003). Collected plant from Serbia morphologically matches the specimen described as H. pseudotranssilvanicum f. basipellitum Nyár. from Mt Retezat (BM 001046631) ...

... was seen on locations in Greece, Croatia, North Macedonia, Montenegro, Hercegovina and Serbia (probably the first reports for the last four countries). In Metohija region (Kosovo and Metohija province), in the city of Prizren (Kaljaja hill) this plant was found in ruderal habitats within the walls of old fortress, at the elevation of c. 520 m and population size was estimated to c. 30 reproductive individuals (Figs 13, 14). Consequently, it can be concluded that the previous record for O. illyricum by Mustafa et al. (2015) from the area of Metohija (Mt Paštrik) also corresponds to this subspecies. ...

Scattered or dense subpopulations of this species are mostly distributed along the state rod 34 within the Đerdap gorge (in a total length of 35.5 km) (Fig. 21), and such an arrangement is probably a consequence of the planned planting of this species during the period of construction of the "Đerdap 1" hydropower plant, in order to prevent erosion and stabilize the nearby limestone soil due to hydrotechnical ...

... This phenomenon can be observed in the frequent occurrence of plants with intermediate morphology at sites where T. montanum coexists with T. polium or T. capitatum. Hybrids between T. montanum and T. polium or T. capitatum in different parts of their distribution are described as hybridogenic taxa: T. × castrense Verg., T. × bogoutdinovae Melinkov and T. × rohlenae K.Malý [23,24]. ...
... It is important to emphasize that in the last century, the species T. polium L. and T. capitatum L. were considered conspecific, whereas T. capitatum was treated as a synonym or subspecies of T. polium [19,24]. According to Navarro [17], species T. polium and T. capitatum are considered separate species, which is also confirmed in Salmaki et al. [18] and relevant checklist [21]. ...
In this work, we analyzed the morphology and genetic structure of Teucrium montanum, T. capitatum and their hybrid T. × rohlenae from three syntopic populations. A morphometric study showed that the parents and their hybrids exhibited continuous morphological variation, with the hybrid positioned exactly between the parents. Genetic analysis revealed that plants morphologically identified as T. × rohlenae are fertile hybrids that produce hybrid swarms dominated by later-generation hybrids. This suggests that introgression, rather than speciation, is the more likely outcome of hybridization between these plant species. The extent and direction of gene flow between the two species differed markedly between the three syntopic localities. At the Trilj locality, it was clearly unidirectional, with T. capitatum playing the dominant role. At the Sićevo locality, gene flow was slightly asymmetric, favoring the genetic background of T. capitatum, while at the Sliven site, it was completely asymmetric in the opposite direction. The extreme case of unidirectional gene flow was observed at the Trilj locality where plants morphologically identified as T. montanum could not be genetically distinguished from T. capitatum. This suggests that interspecific hybridization occurred long ago, leading to introgression and cryptic hybrids, blurring of species boundaries and generating evolutionary noise.
In this paper we suggest three new nomenclatural combinations and specify two new synonyms. There are five taxa (species and subspecies) of the vascular plants that are new for the flora of Serbia, and four species that have been confirmed for the flora of our country. Five plant taxa are a novelty for proper Serbia, Vojvodina, or Kosovo and Metohija, of which four are autochthonous and one is an allochthonous and invasive plant. There are twelve taxa whose presence in Serbia or in its territorial units has been refuted. the name Viola ×foliosa Čelak., which was proposed in the previous issue of this scientific journal, has been corrected to the currently accepted V. ×kerneri Wiesb.
