Abstract

Dianthus anatolicus var. afyonensis Ugurlu, M. Koch & Donmez var. nova is described from central Turkey (Cay, Afyonkarahisar). It is morphologically different from D. anatolicus by stem, leaf and calyx length, and the shape of epicalyx scales and petals. We also used amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) data to identify and circumscribe the new variety. Habitat, ecology and the conservation status of the new variety are described.
