Plantago bellardii All. subsp. bellardii View in CoL
+ Tn: Tunisia: Bizerta, Bizerta North, Cap-Blanc, 37°19'57''N, 09°51'42''E, 10 m, Quercus coccifera L. shrublands, 5 May 2022, El Mokni (Herb. Univ. Monastir). – Plantago bellardii s.l. is native to many countries of the Mediterranean area, with two subspecies ( Marhold 2011b +): P. bellardii subsp. bellardii , with scapes up to 15 cm long, equalling or exceeding the leaves, remaining erect or ascending in fruit; and P. bellardii subsp. deflexa (Pilg.) Rech. f. , with scapes only up to 5 cm long, shorter than the leaves, becoming arcuate-recurved in fruit ( Tutin & al. 1976: 43). For N Africa, allocation to subsp. bellardii was mentioned only for Morocco ( Mathez 1984), but neither for Algeria nor for Tunisia ( Pottier-Alapetite 1981: 883; Marhold 2011b +; Le Floc’h & al. 2010: 278; Dobignard & Chatelain 2013: 103; APD 2022). Therefore, the present determination of subsp. bellardii constitutes its first record for the Tunisian flora. R. El Mokni
