  • Nomenclatural and Taxonomic Notes on Some Centaurea Taxa (Asteraceae) from Southern Italy
    Turkish Journal of Botany Turk J Bot (2020) 44: 441-454 http://journals.tubitak.gov.tr/botany/ © TÜBİTAK Research Article doi:10.3906/bot-1912-9 Nomenclatural and taxonomic notes on some Centaurea taxa (Asteraceae) from southern Italy 1 2, 3 1,4 Emanuele DEL GUACCHIO , Duilio IAMONICO *, Paola CENNAMO , Paolo CAPUTO 1 Botanical Garden, University of Naples Federico II, Naples, Italy 2 Department PDTA, Section Environment and Landscape, University of Rome Sapienza, Rome, Italy 3 Department of Humanistic Sciences, University Suor Orsola Benincasa, Naples, Italy 4 Department of Biology, University of Naples Federico II, Naples, Italy Received: 06.12.2019 Accepted/Published Online: 10.04.2020 Final Version: 16.07.2020 Abstract: We studied the application of the neglected name Centaurea leucolepis DC., concluding, by examination of the literature and original material, that the associated taxon is C. corensis Vals. et Filig., endemic to Campania region (southern Italy) and introduced into Sardinia. The name by Candolle is legitimate and it is here lectotypified by a specimen kept at G. In addition, after field surveys and herbarium searches, we suggest that this taxon should be considered as a subspecies of C. deusta Ten., a very polymorphic species of south-eastern Europe, proposing a new combination and providing a detailed description. In addition, we provide the validation of the name C. cineraria subsp. sirenum, endemic to Sirenuse islands (province of Salerno). Finally, a new natural hybrid within C. sect. Centaurea (C. montaltensis × C. deusta subsp. deusta) is described on the basis of the diagnosis and a specimen at PI by Michele Guadagno.

We provide authentic accommodations, luggage transfers, and some meals, along with comprehensive Route Notes, detailed maps, and 24-hour emergency assistance. This gives you the freedom to focus on the things that matter to you—no group, no guide, and no set schedule to stand in the way of enjoying your adventure, your way. Overview One of Italy’s most blessed regions, the Sorrentine Peninsula and nearby Isle of Capri seemingly have it all—history, elegance, authentic villages, dramatic coastal scenery, and untouched wild places—all interconnected by a wide network of walking trails that remain just out of view of the more touristed places. From Sorrento, Capri, Positano, and Ravello, you slip out of elegant town squares into a landscape of age-old terraces of lemon and olive groves and onto high ridges with sweeping views of the sparkling Mediterranean. You’ll explore at your own pace, wandering through whitewashed villages and climbing hillside trails dotted with wild herbs to stunning clifftop promontories before reaching sumptuous villa gardens. Elegant hotels capture the glamour and old-world style that have drawn visitors for centuries on a Grand Tour, an artist’s retreat, or a jet-setting jaunt.
