Abstract

In the course of preparing a revision of Sameraria and its allies (tribe Isatideae) in Iran, we found some specimens of S. glastifolia (sect. Tetrapterygium), a species closely related to S. stylophora. Moreover, S. elegans is reduced to synonymy of S. armena. As S. stenophylla has also been recorded recently from Iran, a diagnostic key including all species of the genus in Iran is presented
