A new annual Satureja (Lamiaceae) species from Turkey with molecular evidence, and lectotypification of two species

A new species, Satureja hasturkii, is described using morphological characters and molecular studies in this study. The species closely related to S. hortensis but differs from it by very lax thyrsoid inflorescence, longer pedicels, shorter calyx, upper lower calyx teeth, corolla. In order support the data, are also done nrITS cptrnL-F gene regions. data gives better results phylogenetic analysis. It pointed out that closest relatives of hasturkii laxiflora. fact having annual life forms these three explain their closeness. With number Turkey increased 17. Moreover, lectotypes were determined for macrantha wiedemanniana here.
