Ziziphora clinopodioides subsp. ronnigeri (Nábělek) Rechinger (1982: 485) ( Fig. 7 View FIGURE 7 ).

Ziziphora ronnigeri Nábělek (1926: 46)

Type: — TURKEY. Van: Ad pagum Gurundast, inter Sattak (Çatak) et Wan (Van), ad rupes schistosas. 1800 m, 01 August 1910, Nábělek 1476 (lectotype SAV0002377 About SAV -photo!; isolectotype SAV0002376 About SAV -photo!; here designated by Dirmenci) .

Stems erect or ascending, up to 30 cm tall, branched or not, green to pale-green, short pubescent with glandular puberulent and sessile glands. Leaves sometimes fasciculate; lanceolate to broadly elliptic, 15‒25 × 2‒6(‒8) mm, attenuate at base, acute to obtuse at apex, subglabrous to finely puberulous with sessile glands on both surfaces, ciliate at margins. Inflorescence capitate. Calyx 6‒7 mm long, green to whitish green, short pubescent to with long spreading white hairs and sessile glands.

Habitat: —Mountain steppes, schist cliffs, limestone; elev.. 1600‒2400 m; fl. & fr. July to August.

Distribution: —East and southeast of Turkey and West Iran. It is not clear if this taxon dwells also in Iraq, there are no records in the country but it might be eventually found there.

Examined Specimens: — TURKEY. Erzurum: Karakaya dag, Agviran, N of Hınıs , 2250 m, Watson 3671 ( K!) ; Ağrı: E side of Tahir pass, 19 km from Eleşkirt to Horasan , 2400 m, 24.

Ziziphora ronnigeri was described by Nábělek in 1926 from specimens collected from southeastern Turkey. Rechinger in Flora Iranica (1982) evaluated it as a subspecies of Ziziphora clinopodioides and stated that the type specimen was in BRA. However, the specimens that Nábělek collected during his “Iter Turcico-Persicum” trip between 1909‒1910 were transferred to the SAV herbarium. All of Nábělek’s collections (years 1909‒1910) can be seen from the virtual herbarium (http://www.nabelek.sav.sk/). There are two specimens numbered Nábělek 1476 (photo!), which is the type specimen of subsp. ronnigeri at SAV. Between these specimens, the specimen with the barcode SAV0002377 was designated as the lectotype ( Fig. 7 View FIGURE 7 ), as it is the best-preserved specimen that clearly represents the characteristics of the taxon in the protologue, and the specimen with the barcode SAV0002376 is designated as the isolectotype.
