M. anatolica (Boiss.) Woron. in Woronow & Schelk., Sched. Herb. Fl. Cauc. 4: 92 (1914). Syn: Alsine anatolica Boiss., Diagn. ser. 1(8): 97 (1849)! A. setacea var. anatolica (Boiss.) Boiss., Fl. Or. 1: 680 (1867)!   Loosely tufted, hairy or partly glabrous to ± glaucous perennial, usually with creeping caudiculi and erect flowering shoots, 8-25 cm, rarely shorter and densely tufted. Leaves 3-veined at least to the middle; leaf fascicles often scarcely de-veloped at flowering time, or if present always tightly 'closed' and the leaves pointing forwards. Inflorescence a series of lax or ± contracted, usually 8-30-flowered cymes; pedicels pubescent, at least at the base of the calyx, mostly as long as or longer than bract; bracts broadly ovate to ovate-lanceolate, mem-branous-margined throughout. Sepals 2•5-5•5 mm, lanceolate to linear-lanceolate, usually acute, occasionally acuminate, very rarely red-tinted and then only after flowering. Petals shorter than or as long as sepals, very rarely a little longer. 1. Lower part of plant clothed with long white crisped or silky hairs, the leaf fascicles often appearing arachnoid    2. Flowers aggregated into terminal clusters; entire plant lanuginose, greyish white; sepals 4-5•5 mm; plants rather low-growing, 4-10(-14) cm var. lanuginosa    2. Flowers in lax cymes; hairs on lower part of the plant either sparse or crisped and not silky; upper part glandular-puberulent to glabrous; plants 10-20 cm       3. Sepals 2•5-4 mm, lanceolate, broadly acute to acuminate var. arachnoidea       3. Sepals 4-5•5 mm, linear-lanceolate, narrowly acute to long-acuminate var. anatolica 1. Lower part of the plant glabrous, glaucous, puberulent or velutinous, without white crisped or silky hairs; fascicular leaves ciliate but not arachnoid          4. Plants very densely caespitose, 3-4(-5) cm; sepals 2-3 mm, bluntly acute, incurved at apex and margins var. scleranthoides          4. Plants loosely tufted, 8-25 cm; sepals 3-5•5 mm, narrowly acute to acuminate, not incurved              5. Lower part of plant bearing at least some tightly imbricate, ± terete, tetra-stichous leaves less than 2 mm; basal leaves all short, less than 5 mm; flowers arranged                  in terminal and subterminal clusters; petals oblong, long-cuneate at base; plant rather densely velutinous var. tetrasticha              5. All non-fascicular leaves setaceous or subulate, more than 5 mm; inflores-cence usually lax, rarely a little congested and then petals ovate, abruptly contracted at                     base                 6. Entire plant densely glandular-pubescent var. phrygia                 6. Indumentum various, usually sparsely puberulent, only glandular in the inflorescence                     7. Sepals 4-5•5 mm, usually glabrous var. anatolica                     7. Sepals 3-4 mm, often finely puberulent var. polymorpha var. anatolica. Fl. 6-7. Rocks on mountains, 900-2000 m.   Lectotype: [Turkey C2 Denizli] Cadmus supra Denisleh, vi 1842, Boissier (G! - cf. McNeill in Notes R.B.G. Edinb. 24: 371, 1963).
