morphologically similar to Psephellus pyrrhoblepharus (Boiss.) Wagenitz.
Diagnostic characters are discussed, and a key to the most similar
species is provided. Ecology, conservation status and notes on
biogeography of the species are also presented. In addition, the
geographical distribution of the new species and other related species
in Turkey is mapped.
