H. microcarpum (Bieb.) Fedtsch. in Fl. URSS 16:252 (1950). Syn: Cachrys microcarpa Bieb., Tabl. Prov. Casp. 113 (1798); C. crispa Pers., Synops. Pl. 1:311 (1805); Hippomarathrum crispum (Pers.) Boiss., Fl. Or. 2:932 (1872). Map 57, p. 433. Much-branched perennial, 50-100 cm; stems angular-striate, ± glabrous. Basal leaves obconical in outline, 4-5-ternate or -verticillate-ternate; ultimate segments linear to filiform, 10-30(-80) x 0.5-2 mm, glabrous or hispidulous. Rays 7-15,2-4 cm long. Petals glabrous. Fruit globose, 4-6 x 5.5-7.5 mm; ridges obtuse, verrucose. Fl. 6-8. Fields, rocky slopes, 1100-2700 m. Described from Shemakha, Soviet Azerbaijan. N.E., E. & S. Anatolia. A7 Gümüşane: Gümüşane, T. Baytop 14316! A8 Çoruh: nr. Artvin (Grossheim 7: map 59). A9 Kars: Kisir Da., above Susuz, 1800 m, D. 32585! B7 Erzincan: Sipikör Da., Sint. 1890:3355! B8 Bingöl: between Göynük and Karliova, 1900 m, T. Baytop 18267! B9 Bitlis: Süphan Da., 2700 m, D. 24711! Van: Havasor to Hoşap, D. 23297! B10 Ağri: Agleri Da. pass from Arzap, 31 viii 1906, B. Post ! Kars: between Aralik and Takaltu, 9 viii 1910, B. Post ! C5 Hatay: nr. Arsuz, c. 1100 m, Akman 49! C6 Maraş: Berit Da., 1800 m, Hausskn.! Anti-Lebanon, Caucasia. Some of the Turkish material, in particular that cited above from B9 Van (D. 23297), agrees with the descriptions of H. longi-lobum (DC.) Fedtsch. (H. crispum (Pers.) Boiss. var. longilobum (DC.) Boiss.), a Caucasian taxon differing chiefly in having longer leaf lobes (4-8 cm long - in H. microcarpum l-2(-3) cm). H. longilobum is, in any case, probably conspecific with H. microcarpum. |
