(Cruciferae) is thought to be a welldefined genus with more than 180 species distributed in the temperate areas of the northern hemisphere. A. alpina L. and A. glabra L. were also reported to be seen in the high mountains of tropical East Africa (Al-Shehbaz, 1988). A compilation has been provided by Al-Shehbaz (1988) including about 75 taxa (60 endemic) from North America, 44 from Europe (30 endemic), 31 from south-west Asia and the Caucasus (20 endemic), 19 from Central Asia (10 endemic), 28 from China and the Far East (22 endemic), and 15 from north-western Africa (6 endemic). Molecular studies on this genus were considerably reduced in size (Koch et al., 1999; Koch et al., 2000; O’Kane & Al-Shehbaz, 2003; Al-Shehbaz et al., 2006). Turritis L. is associated with Arabis, which was established in 1753 by Linnaeus and later by others .
