Abstract

During our research on the genus Jurinea (Asteraceae) in Chaharmahal and Bakhtiari Province, specimens collected from the northwest and west of the province were compared with the related type specimens and the original protologues. This analysis revealed that the type specimen of J. viciosoi lacks capitula and, therefore, requires epitypification. Accordingly, an epitype is designated here, selected from our recent collections at the type locality. Jurinea viciosoi has been traditionally distinguished from J. meda primarily based on decurrent leaves and some minor morphological characters. However, extensive field observations and herbarium studies demonstrated that these characteristics are highly variable and frequently occur within populations of J. meda. As a result, we confirm that J. viciosoi should be treated as a synonym of J. meda. Additionally, based on the examination of numerous flowering and fruiting specimens, a comprehensive and updated description of J. meda is provided here.
