Basal leaves often crowded, linear-oblanceolate to spathulate, 7-60x1∙5-8 mm; cauline ones narrowing to linear above; sometimes with crisply undulate margin. Capitula numerous, subglobose. Phyllaries ± flat or cucullate, yellow (rarely straw-coloured) or apricot. All flowers hermaphrodite. Fl. 5-8. Dry calcareous or sandy soils; steppe, banks, 250-3200 m. 1. Phyllaries cucullate, apricot, yellow or straw-coloured subsp. rubicundum 1. Phyllaries flat, yellow    2. Leaves undulate; basal leaves 7-20 x 1∙5-4 mm subsp. erzincanicum    2.

The following specimens appear to be somewhat intermediate between subspp. rubicundum and aucheri. They have oblanceolate-spathulate leaves and sometimes apricot capitula like members of subsp. rubicundum, but usually non-undulate leaves and flat phyllaries as in subsp. aucheri. The letters after each citation are used, as in subsp. rubicundum, to indicate leaf-waviness and colour of capitula: A6 Sivas: 17 km W. of Suşehri, 780 m, M.Zohary 971124 (ab)!
