Type species.

Papaver macrostomum Boiss. & Huet, Boiss. Fl. Orient. 1: 115. 1867.

Notes.

Includes a single species, P. macrostomum Boiss. & A. Huet, with a dehiscing capsule disc, which is an exclusive character according to Kadereit (1987), who only included four varieties. POWO (2023) also accepted P. halophilum (Fedde) Cullen and P. piptostigma Bien. ex Fedde . However, they were treated as synonyms of P. macrostomum by Kadereit (1987) and Tavakkoli and Assadi (2016).
