Abstract :Primula × uzungolensis Terzioğlu & Coşkunçelebi, a natural hybrid from north-eastern Anatolia, is described and illustrated with its parents. Based on its morphology and molecular characteristics, we conclude that P. × uzungolensis is a new natural hybrid between P. acaulis insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(L.); Hill subsp. rubra insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(Sm.); Greuter & Burdet and P. veris L. subsp. columnae insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(Ten.); Maire & Petitmengin. Maximum parsimony insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(MP); analysis based on nuclear ribosomal DNA insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(nrDNA); and chloroplast DNA insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(cpDNA); shows that P. veris subsp. columnae is the maternal parent of the putative hybrid, and the hybridisation between P. veris subsp. columnae and P. acaulis subsp. rubra is unidirectional.
