            <p> Notes: — This small alpine species is probably among the least known members of the genus  Muscari . It shares some morphological similarities with  Muscari botryoides in which it was synonymized by some authors, but is smaller with generally fewer flowers and those are of a brighter colour with faint white stripes.  Additionally , the species is found only in alpine habitats above 2000 m of elevation in the mountains of central Greece, the Peloponnese mountains as well as on Crete.  Muscari botryoides is usually absent in elevation above 2000 m and is further barely documented from Peloponnese and missing on Crete.  The original description was made by E. Boissier (1859) in his  Flora Orientalis based on a gathering made by J. Guicciardi near  mount Parnassus in present  Kentriki Ellada province .  The respective gathering was distributed under exsiccate nr. 662 of the  Herbarium Graecum Normale of T. Heldreich. Seven specimens of this gathering are located in different herbaria, namely  Berlin (B), the  Boissier herbarium held in  Geneva (G-BOIS),  Jena (JE),  Montpellier (MPU),  Stockholm (S) and  Vienna (WU).  Among those seven specimens, the one in Stockholm is by far the most complete one incl. multiple well-preserved plants, however, the specimen held in Geneva (G-BOIS) must be regarded as the lectotype since it is presumably the one that was used to make the description, hence it is here selected as lectotype and the others as isolectotypes. Some confusion may arise from the fact that the specimens referring either to the name  M. heldreichii or to  M. hymenophorum . Obviously, T. Heldreich regarded his gathering 662 as a new species and designated on his herbarium labels a new name, but Boissier did not follow and named the new taxon in honour of T. Heldreich. </p>
