Abstract

Minuartia dirphya from Mt Dirphys (Evvia) is described as a species new to science. It is closely related to M. wettsteinii from Mt Thriptis (East Kriti) and M. parnonia from Mt Pamon (South Peloponnisos). The three narrow endemic species form a well‐defined group, the Minuartia wettsteinii‐group, within Minuartia ser. Laricifoliae Mc Neill. Additions to the descriptions, chorological and ecological data for M. wettsteinii and M. parnonia are provided. The morphological characters of the group and the differences to the other species of ser. Laricifoliae are discussed. A key to the species, illustrations of the taxa and their seeds, chromosome numbers and data on their geographical distribution are also provided.
