It is morphologically similar toK. serratuloidessubsp.serratuloides. Diagnostic morphological characters from closely similar taxa are discussed and arranged in a key. Ecology and conservation status of the subspecies is also presented. In addition, the geographical distribution of the new subspecies and other related species is mapped. The pollen morphology and achene surface ofK. serratuloidessubsp.karamanicaandK. serratuloidessubsp.serratuloideswere examined by SEM.
