Lectotypification of the name Androsace mathildae Levier (Primulaceae)
No full textAndrosace mathildae Levier (1877: 43) is endemic to Abruzzo (central Italy; Bartolucci et al. 2017, 2018), occurring in the Gran Sasso and Monti della Laga national Park (Conti & Bartolucci 2016) and in the Majella national Park (F. Conti and collaborators, submitted), on limestone rocks and screes between 2,350 and 2,900 m a.s.l. This species is listed in Annexes II and IV of the Habitats Directive 92/43/ECC (Rossi et al. 2016), and, according to the IUCN criteria, is evaluated as Least Concern (LC; Rossi et al. 2013, Orsenigo et al. 2018). Androsace mathildae is also included in the project LIFE15 NAT/IT/000946 “Safeguard and valorization of the plant species of EU interest in the Natural Parks of the Abruzzo Apennine” (Di Martino et al. 2016).The present contribution is part of an ongoing project promoted by the Italian Botanical Society aimed at recognizing and typifying all the taxa described from Italy, in order to increase their systematic knowledge and promote further studies (Domina et al. 2012, Passalacqua et al. 2014, Peruzzi et al. 2015, Brundu et al. 2017). The name Androsace mathildae, to the best of our knowledge, was not yet typified (Peruzzi et al. 2015)

No full textMalva micans subsp. pallescens (Moris) F. Conti & Bartolucci comb. nova and Malva micans subp. minoricensis (Cambess.) Bartolucci & F. Conti comb. nova are proposed
Pinguicula (Lentibulariaceae) in central Italy: taxonomic study
No full textA morphometric and taxonomic study of Pinguicula in central Italy was carried out. Six allopatric units occur in this area, all belonging to sect. Pinguicula: P. fiorii Tammaro & Pace, P. vulgaris L. subsp. vulgaris and four new taxa: P. vulgaris subsp. anzalonei Peruzzi & F. Conti subsp. nova, P. vulgaris subsp. ernica Peruzzi & F. Conti subsp. nova, P. vulgaris subsp. vestina F. Conti & Peruzzi subsp. nova and P. vallis-regiae F. Conti & Peruzzi sp. nova. A key to the Italian species and subspecies of Pinguicula is provided
Minuartia glomerata (M. Bieb.) Degen s.l. dans l’Europe sud-occidentale.
No full textThe systematic research carried out by the authors on the Series Xeralsine McNeill and the Series
Setaceae Mattf. show affinities between Minuartia rostrata prol. burnatii (Rouy & Foucaud)
Graebn. (from SW Alps) and M. cymifera (Rouy & Foucaud) Graebn. (from Spain and France)
with Minuartia glomerata, thus we propose two new combinations: M. glomerata subsp. burnatii
(Rouy & Foucaud) Favarger & F. Conti and M. glomerata subsp. cymifera (Rouy & Foucaud)
Favarger & F. Conti. The comparative examination of many specimens of M. mutabilis allow us to
confirm the systematic existence of M. mutabilis subsp. lesurina (Braun-Blanq.) Favarger & F.
Conti, proposing a new combination
