Abstract
Allium apolloniensis is described as a species new to science,
illustrated and compared with related species of A. sect.
Codonoprasum. It is apparently restricted to the Cyclades in
the central Aegean and of particular interest for the phylogeny of
the genus because it is tetraploid (2n = 4x = 32).
Key words:
monocotyledons, Alliaceae, taxonomy, central Aegean,
karyology.
