Bulb ovoid-obclavate, (1.7 –) 2.0 – 3.0 × (1.2 –) 1.5 – 2.1 cm, bulb scales whitish, bulb partially and irregularly covered with a brown papery tunic; roots slightly succulent, whitish. Basal sheath tubular, (3.4 –) 4.0 – 6.5 × 0.6 – 0.9 cm, whitish. Leaves supervolute in vernation; leaf blades at the beginning of flowering and afterwards recurving, narrowly oblong to narrowly oblong-oblanceolate, narrowing in basal 1 / 3, at maturity 22.0 – 25.0 × 2.0 – 4.0 (– 4.5) cm; apex acute, ± flat to cucullate, revolute, often with a short point at the tip; base narrowly attenuate; midrib conspicuous; margins flat to slightly undulate; surfaces often with two or four longitudinal folds (leaves bent slightly upwards or slightly downwards), texture smooth to slightly puckered; upper and lower surfaces concolorous, bright medium-green, with an oil-like sheen. Scape 1 (– 2), 18.8 – 25.0 cm long, 2.1 – 2.3 mm in diameter, bright medium-green. Pedicel 2.7 – 4.0 (– 5.0) cm long, 0.8 – 1.0 mm in diameter. Spathe 2.9 – 4.1 × (0.9 –) 1.1 – 1.4 cm, light green. Flowers narrowly pyriform when closed (i. e. in outline shape). Outer perianth segments 3, narrowly obovate to narrowly obovate-elliptic, 2.3 – 3.0 × 0.7 – 1.3 cm; base unguiculate, particularly as flowers mature, claw 0.6 – 1.4 cm long; apex acute, slightly cucullate. Inner perianth segments 3, ± ⅓ the size of the outer perianth segments, obovate, 0.8 – 1.2 × 0.4 – 0.8 cm, white; apex rounded to rounded-truncate, with a small sinus (notch), 0.2 – 0.6 mm deep, or sinus sometimes absent, with a hemispherical or broad U-shaped green mark, or the mark reduced to two small, dot-like to triangular marks on both sides of the sinus or sometimes apical marks absent; base acute-truncate, with a diffuse, greenish mark covering the basal ¼ of the segment or mark absent; margins flat. Anthers: filaments 6, in two whorls, c. 1.4 mm long, thicker at base, oval in cross section, c. 0.2 mm in diameter, whitish; anther sacs triangular-sagittate, (4 –) 5 – 7 × 4 – 5 mm, apex sharply acute, base ± cordate. Capsule (at flowering), ellipsoid-cylindrical to ellipsoid-obovoid, often slightly triangular, (0.5 –) 1.0 – 1.5 × (0.4 –) 0.7 – 0.9 cm, bright medium green; ovary trilocular, with several ovules per locule, placentation axile, ± ellipsoid, 0.4 – 0.6 cm in diameter. Capsule (at fruiting) not seen, seeds not seen. Chromosome number 2 n = 24 (Takhtajan 1990).	en	Zubov, Dmitriy A., Davis, Aaron P.

03B34758FFD3FFDAFF58B2F0FF0D70AB.taxon	distribution	Distribution: — Western Transcaucasia (Tuapse-Adler region: Aїbga Ridge; Abkhazia region: Bzyb’ Ridge and Gagra Ridge); a narrowly local northern Colchis endemic. Possibly a preglacial relict of the ancient Mediterranean flora. (Fig. 3). Habitat & ecology: — Described from the border of the lower alpine montane meadow and Abies nordmanniana forest, at 1600 m; observed in the subalpine and middle montane forest belts (incl. Fagus orientalis) of calcareous ridges, along streams, in forest clearings, on limestone outcrops, rarely in inversion dells at c. 400 m; (400 –) 800 – 1800 m elevation; growing on humus-carbonaceous montane forest brown soils. Syntopic with G. woronowii. Sciophyte, calciphile. Phenology: — Flowering: (March –) April to June; fruiting period not recorded, but probably from May to July. Specimens examined: — Western Transcaucasia: Abkhazia – Gagra vicinities, 1600 m, 12 Apr 1913 (fl.), Sakharov 634 (holotype: LE; isotype: LE); near Gagra, south slope of mountain range Berchil, of the river Sandrdipsh, vicinity of village Guzlya, 12 km NE of Gagra, 1200 – 1800 m, 27 Jun 1989 (fl.), Geltman et al. 3204 & 3232 (LE); on the road to Ritza Auadkara [Auadkara], 1 Jun 1988 (fl.), Chitanava s. n. (LE). Russia – Tuapse-Adler region – Adler vicinities, Aїbga Ridge, oriental beech forest, 800 m, 12 Apr 2008 (fl.), Bondareva & Zubov s. n. (KWHA). Conservation assessment: — Considered ‘ Endangered’ (EN; IUCN 2001). B 1 ab (i, iii) + 2 b (i). B 1 — extent of occurrence (EOO) estimated to be less than 5000 km 2 (549.5 km 2 for G. panjutinii); a — known to exist at no more than five locations (G. panjutinii is known from five locations based on seven user points); b (i, iii) — continuing decline projected for EOO (i), and quality of habitat (iii). 2 b (i) — area of occupancy (AOO) estimated to be less than 500 km 2 (20 km 2 for G. panjutinii based on a cell width of 2 km). In March 2011 it was observed (D. Zubov, O. Bondareva) that a large part of one location is already destroyed due to the ongoing construction of facilities for the 2014 Winter Olympics, which will be held in Sochi. FIGURE 3.
