Highlights
Species of the genus Tulipa L. (Liliaceae) have great economic, horticultural, and ecological value[1] while being culturally significant in many areas of the world.[2]
Our most informative tree provides evidence that the scardica complex has been over split and that T. luanica and T. kosovarica should be synonymised under T. serbica
Our phylogenetic analyses show that Kosovarian tulips can be distinguished as either in the subgenera Eriostemones or Tulipa
Summary
Species of the genus Tulipa L. (Liliaceae) have great economic, horticultural, and ecological value[1] while being culturally significant in many areas of the world.[2]. (Liliaceae) have great economic, horticultural, and ecological value[1] while being culturally significant in many areas of the world.[2] They are bulbous monocots characterized by a diverse range of variable vegetative and floral traits, which were traditionally used to define species concepts in this genus. The vegetative and floral traits often show a high degree of plasticity, sometimes, even within populations of a species.[2,3,4] Due to this and the long horticultural history of tulips, creating a stable taxonomic framework for the genus has been extremely difficult, despite the existence of a large body of literature,[3,4,5,6] and so classifications of Tulipa have been revised several times,[7] The total number of extant. According to the most complete evaluation of the genus to date,[2] only 76 species are accepted, but since this work, a number of new species have been described.[11,12,13,14] The
