03B5AD67FFD9FFA1E158FA1388DAF80C.taxon	description	Celsia carmanica Bornm., Oesterreichische botanische Zeitschrift 49: 51 (1899). DESCRIPTION Plant biennial, 50 to 200 cm height, covered in densely stellate, yellowish-gray hairs. Stem Robust, leafy, round at the bottom, but a bit angular, and branched at top. Basal leaves Have long petioles, lamina up to 20 cm long, 4 - 7 cm wide, ovate or ovate-oblong, sinuated, 2 - 4 lobes, obtuse. Lower stem leaves Similar to the basal ones, but with shorter petioles, upper leaves sub-sessile, oval, lobed-toothed; at top: sessile, sub-entire. Inflorescence Loose, many simple branches, up to 90 cm long. Bracts Small, ovate or triangular-ovate, entire, up to 10 mm, shorter, same as or longer than fruiting pedicel. Pedicel (fruiting) Sessile or up to 5 mm long, thick, ± erect. Calyx Lobes 4 - 6 mm long, oblong-linear, acute, covered with stellate and glandular hairs. Corolla color Yellow, but Huber-Morath (1981) described its color as violet. Nevertheless, we noticed repeatedly that corolla color changes after drying to turn very dark. Corolla 18 - 22 mm diam., abaxial surface covered with sparse stellate hairs. Stamens Four, one third of top part of two anterior filaments are naked, the rest covered densely with long purple hairs. Anthers Reniform and medifix. Capsule Pyramid-ovoid, 7 - 10 mm long, 4.5 - 7 mm wide, hairy.	en	Sotoodeh, Arash, Attar, Farideh, Andalo, Christophe, Mirtadzadini, Mansour, Civeyrel, Laure (2018): Focusing on three Verbascum L. taxa (Scrophulariaceae) of the Flora of Iran.

03B5AD67FFDBFFA2E2E7FF168F42FC97.taxon	distribution	DISTRIBUTION. — Endemic of the irano-turanian region. CONSERVATION STATUS ASSESSMENT. — Field observations indicated that V. carmanicum plants were never observed in large populations. Their geographical range of occurrence is estimated to be less than 3000 km 2 and severely fragmented. They were collected in less than five locations. According to the rules for classifying the rare, threatened, and endemic plants, IUCN criteria (http: // www. iucnredlist. org [accessed: 16 March 2018]), this species should be considered as endangered [EN A 1 ac; B 1 ab (iv)].	en	Sotoodeh, Arash, Attar, Farideh, Andalo, Christophe, Mirtadzadini, Mansour, Civeyrel, Laure (2018): Focusing on three Verbascum L. taxa (Scrophulariaceae) of the Flora of Iran.

DIAGNOSIS. — Verbascum carmanicum subsp. kermanense, subsp. nov. can be distinguished from V. carmanicum subsp. carmanicum, subsp. nov. by a combination of the following characters: Plant 50 - 65 cm height (vs 100 - 200). Bracts ovate or triangular-oval, 5 - 10 mm long (vs up to 5), longer than fruiting pedicel, entire (vs same as fruiting pedicel). Pedicels (fruiting): sessile or up to 2 mm (vs 2.5 - 5). DISTRIBUTION. — Endemic of the Irano-turanian region. CONSERVATION STATUS ASSESSMENT. — Field observations indicated that this species was never observed in large populations; its geographical range of occurrence is estimated to be less than 2000 km 2 and severely fragmented, or known to exist in no more than four locations. According to the rules for classifying the rare, threatened, and endemic plants, IUCN criteria (http: // www. iucnredlist. org [accessed: 16 March 2018]), this species should be considered as endangered [EN A 1 ac; B 1 ab (iv)].	en	Sotoodeh, Arash, Attar, Farideh, Andalo, Christophe, Mirtadzadini, Mansour, Civeyrel, Laure (2018): Focusing on three Verbascum L. taxa (Scrophulariaceae) of the Flora of Iran.
