status

 

(b) Subsp. mediterranea Chodat View in CoL , Bull. Soc. Bot. Genève 5: 179 (1889):

Glabrous or minutely puberulent. Leaves all linear to linear-lanceolate. Flowers usually pink. Outer sepals 3-4 mm; wings 7-5-10 mm. Upper petals exceeding wings. Capsule oblongobovate to obcordate. Seeds oblong; lateral lobes of strophiole straight. S.E. Europe, extending westwards to N. Italy, and northeastwards to S. Russia.

The most widespread and variable of the subspecies, which should, perhaps, be divided. The plants from Ukraine and S. Russia included here are somewhat isolated geographically. They have been distinguished as P. cretacea Kotov , Zur. Inst. Bot. URSR 21-22: 238 (1939), and may, perhaps, be referable to P. hybrida DC. , Prodr. 1: 325 (1824).
