Geranium margaritae Kit Tan, Vold & Kofinas
Synonymy
Notes
Geranium margaritae was described from a known population of plants in the summit area of Mount Kithaironas. The population, already known to Heldreich, has been considered by botanists including Heldreich, Tuntas, Strid and Constantinidis to represent only a whitish form of the widespread mountain species G. subcaulescens L'Hér. ex DC. The authors of the new name suggest that the observed differences in flower color combined with the faster dormancy of Kithaironas plants support the distinction of the latter at the species level (Tan & Kofinas 2023).
