Summary
Allium L. is an extremely polymorphic and taxonomically difficult genus with a natural distribution in the northern Hemisphere. During the field work in August 2013, the first and the third authors collected some interesting Allium specimens from C6 Hatay: Antakya, above Kisecik, Radar road, trackside. Detailed study and observations revealed its distinctness from the known taxa, and is described here as new subspecies Allium phanerantherum subsp.
