Among them was a specimen that could not be identified using the account in the Flora of Turkey (Cullen, 1965; Davis et al., 1988; Güner et al., 2000). Eventually, using the generic account in the Flora of Iraq (Townsend, 1980), Flora of Palaestina (Zohary, 1966) and Nouvelle Flore du Liban et de la Surie (Mouterde, 1970), the specimens were identified as Malcolmia exacoides (DC.) Spreng. It was a new record for the flora of Turkey. The record is not surprising since the species also grows in near by Syria and Iraq. Malcolmia exacoides (DC.) Spreng., Syst. Veg.
