Transcaucasia, Iraq & Iran. Ir.-Tur. element. Widespread and very common in eastern Turkey. Very variable in all its characters and apparently consisting of innumerable interconnected local forms. Although the two species Ae. grandiflorum and Ae. pulchellum have usually been kept as separate species, many authors (e.g. Bornmüller, Blakelock) have remarked that there are transitions between them. On the basis of the abundant Turkish material, there is no justi fıcation in maintaining two separate taxa. Both petal size and shape are most
variable and the larger-flowered taxon which is more common in Iran can apparently only be recognised in flower.
