Summary

Brullo C., Brullo S., Giusso del Galdo G. & Salmeri C. 2010. Allium makrianum (Alliaceae), a new autumnal species from Greece. – Phyton (Horn, Austria) 49 (2): 267–278, with 3 figures.

Allium makrianum C. Brullo, S. Brullo, Guisso & Salmeri is described as a new species growing on limestone slopes of Mt. Pilineon on Chios, a north-eastern Aegean island (Greece). A. makrianum is characterized by hairy leaves (blades and sheaths), glabrous and unilateral spathe, glabrous tepals, no interstaminal teeth and densely tuberculate ovary. The species is a very rare autumnal geophyte, showing some relationships to A. archeotrichon from Rhodos. Its morphology, chromosome number (2n=16), leaf anatomy, ecology and taxonomy are examined.
