Notes.
Tulipa salsola was described relatively recently in 2022 from the southern part of Dungarian Alatau, Zhetysuyskaya Oblast, Kazakhstan. It is morphologically similar to T. kolbintsevii but differs by the presence of 2 (– 3) flowers, an adaxially strongly woolly bulb tunic, absent elongated bulb tunic, and stamens shorter or equal to the ovary (vs. one flower, naked on the neck with some hairs on the bulb tunic adaxially, elongated bulb tunic, and stamens longer than the ovary in T. kolbintsevii ) ( Rukšāns and Zubov 2022).
