Plants from the Balkan peninsula differ somewhat from those from the Carpathians in having a denser, more glandular indumentum and a several-flowered inflorescence. They have been distinguished as S. thessalonica Boiss. & Heldr. in Boiss., Diagn. PI. Or. Nov. 3 (1): 74 (1853), and may merit subspecific rank.
