A New Distribution Area of the Lathyrus undulatus Boiss. (Fabaceae) in Türkiye and Taxonomic Contributions

Abstract

Lathyrus undulatus Boiss., an endemic species belongs to the Fabaceae family, is distributed in A1, A2, A3, A5 and B2 squares in the flora of Türkiye according to the literature records. In our researches, it has also been seen that the species is distributed in a narrow area at an altitude of 791-803 m around C2 Muğla: Menteşe, Yerkesik. L. undulatus has found for the first time by us in this locality and added as a new record for the C2 square with this study. By morphological examinations on the newly detected population, vegetative and generative characteristics such as stem, stipule, leaf, leaflets, inflorescence, peduncle, pedicel, flower, fruit, seed etc. have been revealed. The flowering time has been determined by conducting field studies on different dates. The morphological features of the new population have been compared with the descriptions of L. undulatus found in the Flora of Türkiye and the Flora Europaea, and similarities and differences have been revealed.
