    Notes

    A variable species which can be tolerably divided into four geographical races in Greece, viz. (a) subsp. cretica, (b) subsp. corymbosa, (c) subsp. graeca and (d) subsp. neglecta, although there are many intermediates in areas of overlap. Some populations from Kik are intermediate between (a) and (c); (c) and (d) are merging in mainland Greece. Subspecies (b), rather poorly destinguished from (d), is centerd in IoI and western mainland Greece. Species rank as optionally adopted for (a) by Boissier (1849) and for (c) by Kamari (1976) is considered taxonomically overvalued (see Synonyms), following Vierhapper (1919: 263 f.), Hayek (1931: 859) and Tutin & al. (1976).
