A new species, Prospero hierae C. BRULLO, S. BRULLO, Giusso, PAVONE & SALMERI (Hyacinthaceae), from Island of Marettimo (Egadi Archipelago, Sicily) is described and illustrated. Its chromosome number (2n = 14), leaf anatomy and ecology are examined. This small species with glaucous, adaxially flat leaves is closely related with the taxa belonging to the Prospero autumnale group and, in particular, it shows more affinities to P. corsicum, P. pulchellum and P. minimum.

Abstract

A new species, Prospero hierae C. BRULLO, S. BRULLO, Giusso, PAVONE & SALMERI (Hyacinthaceae), from Island of Marettimo (Egadi Archipelago, Sicily) is described and illustrated. Its chromosome number (2n = 14), leaf anatomy and ecology are examined. This small species with glaucous, adaxially flat leaves is closely related with the taxa belonging to the Prospero autumnale group and, in particular, it shows more affinities to P. corsicum, P. pulchellum and P. minimum.
