present in Dobrudja by the Flora Romaniae. Mistakenly do CIOCÂRLAN & COSTEA (1997:
101) indicate the collibus Allah-Bair in Dobrudja instead of Salvia ×betonicifolia Etl., a
taxon characterized in Germany, recently acknowledged as a synonym of Salvia nutans
(Website). Conceding that the hybrid Salvia ×betonicifolia Etl. is a synonym of Salvia nutans
is not correct. The illustration in the Romanian Flora vol. 8, Pl. 46, fig.1. is revealing,
but the citation of it from Dobrudja is improper: “frequent in the steppes of Dobrudja”
(RĂVĂRUŢ & NYÁRÁDY 1961: 270).
Salvia ×betonicifolia Etling (S. ×"betonicufolia") from NE of Bulgaria (Kaliakra
and Baltata, Davidoff 1905) cited by Flora of Bulgaria (MARKOVA 1989: 458) is perhaps
the same plant. The Salvia ×betonicifolia Etling is considered as synonym of Salvia nutans
in the same index! This must be incorrect, as the plant illustrated in Flora Romaniae volume
8 is certainly a hybrid. Thus, in the case of the Dobrudjan flora, the correct mode to cite it
as a synonym is: Salvia ×betonicifolia auct. roman et bulg., a ‘plantae dobrogensem’, non
Etling! I collected this hybrid in the vicinity of Balchik: Balchik WNW, vallis Balchik, 21
V 1999, socio cum S. nemorosa subsp. babadagensis et S. nutans L. [BUCA]; Balchik E,
in collibus aridis, inter parentes, 10 VIII 1999, G. Negrean [HGN]; also in Tuzlata, 10 VIII
1999, G. Negrean [BUCA].
