I. cochlearis Boiss. in Ann. Sci. Nat., 17: 202 (1842). Figure 16, p. 293. Biennial. Stem 30-70 cm, glabrous or pilose below, corymbose-paniculate above. Leaves thin, pilose at least on the midrib below; basal leaves usually lobed and dentate; median stem leaves oblong-lanceolate, sparingly dentate or entire, with large rounded amplexicaul auricles. Flowers 4 mm. Fruit obovate to narrowly obovate-oblong, 6-12(-15) x 2-4 mm, shortly inflated below the loculus, glabrous, tomentose-pubescent (type) or villose at the loculus, dilated above the loculus into a concave obovate wing, loculus very narrowly thick-winged or nearly wingless, situated towards the base of the fruit, midrib thickening when ripe. Fl. 4-5. Shady limestone rocks and rocky slopes, 550-1800 m.   Type: [Turkey C6 Adiyaman] Besnie, Aucher 211 (holo. G! iso. K!).   Mesopotamia. B8 Bitlis: Kambos Da., above Hurmuz, 1800 m, D. 2343 (approaching I. guestii)! C6 Gaziantep: Fevzipaşa to Gaziantep, 550 m, Hub.-Mor. 13781! C8 Mardin: Mardin. Sint. 1888: 931!   N. Iraq. Ir.-Tur. element. Very variable in the size and form of its fruits, possibly due to introgression with other species (e.g. I. buschiana). I. guestii Blakelock (Sect. Apterolobus, from N. Iraq) intergrades with I. cochlearis and may not be specifically distinct.
