Abstract

The genus Orobanche has 39 species in Iran of which nine taxa are endemic to Flora Iranica area. During preparation of Orobanchaceae for the Farsi version of Flora of Iran, Orobanche owerini is described and illustrated as a new record to Iran. O. schultzii is reported for the second time from Iran. O. cistanchoides, O. stocksii, O. caucasica and O. bungeana which have been reported as distinct species by previous authors are revised and accepted. Also, Orobanche caryophyllacea is represented as a valid species and it has the priority over O. vulgaris. Details on the habitat, ecology and taxonomic remarks of the studied taxa are given.

Abstract [Persian]

جنس Orobanche در ایران دارای 39 گونه است که شش گونه آن انحصاری منطقه "فلور ایرانیکا" است. در راستای تدوین تیره Orobanchaceae برای فلور ایران به زبان فارسی گونه Orobanche owerini  برای اولین بار از ایران گزارش و ترسیم می‌گردد.
O. schultzii برای دومین بار از ایران کزارش میگردد. گونه های O. cistanchoides٬stocksii  .O٬  O. caucasica و O. bungeana که توسط مؤلفین قبلی به عنوان گونه‌های مستقل گزارش گردیدند بازنگری و پذیرفته شدند. همچنین O. caryophyllacea به عنوان گونه معتبر و تقدم نام آنبر O. vulgaris ارایه می‌گردد. ویژگیهای تاکسونومیکی٬ رویشگاه، اکولوژی گونه های مورد مطالعه این جنس ارائه می شود.
