Boiss. subsp. carduchorum (Boiss. & Hausskn.) . (Apiaceae) are reported as new records for the Turkish flora. They have been identified using the collected specimens and Flora Iranica. The taxa’s diagnostic characters, habitats, photos, and a distribution map of the new records in Turkey are given. Key words: Allium, Grammosciadium, Ferulago, new record, flora, Turkey Introduction During floristic investigations, gigantic specimens of Allium L. and unrecognised Grammosciadium DC. and Ferulago specimens were collected from Hakkari (around Ceylanlı village) and Şırnak (Beytüşşebap District, Mezraa town). At first, it was not possible to identify them according to the Flora of Turkey (Hedge & Lamond, 1972; Peşmen, 1972; Kollman, 1984) or with supplements, literature, and check-lists III, IV, and V of additional taxa to the Flora of Turkey’s supplements (Davis et al., 1988; Güner et al., 2000; Özhatay & Kültür, 2006; Özhatay et al., 2009, 2011, 2012). Collected materials were identified as Allium giganteum Regel, Grammosciadium scabridum Boiss., and Ferulago angulata (Schlecht.) Boiss. subsp. carduchorum (Boiss. & Hausskn.) . using Flora Iranica (Weldenbo, 1971; Chamberlain, 1987; Tamamschian, 1987). The taxa were described and illustrated since there is no information about
