Box 65175/4161, Hamedan, Iran Abstract Salvia longipedicellata is reported as a new record of Salvia species for the first time from Iran. The morphological characters of this species have been described; in addition the lectotype for S. hypoleuca and S. schimperi designed and the morphological characters of the first species have been described here. Indumentum diversity of S. longipedicellata is provided in photographs. Finally, two keys to a part of Salvia sect. Aethiopis in Iran has been presented. Key words: Anatomy, lectotype, morphology, Salvia longipedicellata, sect. Aethiopis 1. Introduction The genus Salvia L. (Lamiaceae: tribe Mentheae) represents a cosmopolitan assemblage of nearly 1000 species displaying a remarkable diversity in growth forms, secondary compounds, floral morphology and pollination biology. Salvia has radiated extensively in three regions of the world: Central and South America (500 spp.), Western Asia (200 spp.) and Eastern Asia (100 spp.) (Walker and Sytsma, 2007). The genus is named “Salvia” derived from “Salveo” which means “to save, to recover” in Latin (Baran et al., 2010). Salvia is distinguished from the other 72 genera in the tribe Mentheae by having the two posterior stamens aborted, and the connective separating the thecae of the two expressed stamens significantly elongated (Walker and Sytsma, 2007). Hedge (1982b), in his treatment of Salvia in the flora Iranica region, recognized 70 species.

  • Alborz Karaj (Persian: جﺮﻛ Pronounced [Kæˈɾædʒ]) Is a City in and the Capital of Karaj County, Alborz Province, Iran
    Alborz ,pronounced [kæˈɾædʒ]) is a city in and the capital of Karaj County ﻛﺮج :Karaj (Persian Alborz Province, Iran. At the 2006 census, its population was 1,377,450, in 385,955 families, making it the fifth-largest city in Iran. It is situated 20 kilometres (12 mi) west of Tehran, at the foothills of the Alborz mountains. The city is surrounded by mountains which give it great landscapes. The history of Karaj dates back many centuries. The stone built Zoroastrian fire temple of Takht-e-Rostam from the Parthian era is a testament to this. The Soleimanieh palace (currently housing a college of Agriculture), the mausoleum of Shahzadeh Soleiman, Imamzadeh Rahman and Zeid Palang Abad-e-Eshtehard are other historical relics of the Karaj area. During the Pahlavi dynasty era, the Morvarid Palace was constructed in nearby Mehrshahr district, designed by the Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation. Especially after the Islamic Revolution thousands of people started to migrate to this pleasant small town making it one of the biggest cities of Iran in less then 3 decades. Currently Karaj is the center of Alborz province located at west of Tehran. Alborz province itself is the youngest and smallest province of Iran. It is named after Alborz mountain range, which is located at the north of Iran. It also provides a great share of water supply of Tehran because of its rich resources such as rivers and springs. It is connected by freeway, railway to Tehran 40 km east and Qazvin 100 km northwest, and by commuter rail to Tehran subway system (Metro).

  • Travel to Tehran-Iran
    Travel to Tehran-Iran ABOUT IRAN- HISTORY & HERITAGE The plateau of Iran is among the oldest civilization centers in the history of humanity and has an important place in archeological studies. The history of settlement in the Plateau of Iran, from the new Stone Age till the migration of Aryans to this region, is not yet very clear. But there is reliable evidence indicating that Iran has been inhabited since a very long time ago. Settlement centers have emerged close to water resources like springs, rivers, lakes or totally close to Alborz and Zagross mountains. After the decline of the Achievement dynasty, and the destruction of Persepolis by Alexander, his successors the Seleucid dominated over Iran for a short period of time. During this time the interaction between Iranian and Hellenic cultures occurred. Around the year 250 BC, the Parthians, who were an Aryan tribe as well as horse riders, advanced from Khorassan towards the west and south-west and founded their empire over Iran Plateau in Teesfoon. This empire survived only until the year 224 AD. The Sassanian, after defeating the last Parthia n king in 225 AD, founded a new empire which lasted until mid-7th century AD. With respect to its political, social, and cultural characteristics, the ancient period of Iran (Persia) is one of the most magnificent epochs of Iranian history. Out of this era, so many cultural and historical monuments have remained inPersepolis, Passargadae, Susa (Shoosh), Shooshtar, Hamadan, Marvdasht (Naqsh-e-Rostam), Taq-e- bostan, Sarvestan, and Nayshabur, which are worth seeing. The influence of Islam in Iran began in the early 7th century AD after the decline of the Sassanide Empire.
