The semidesert taxon Halothamnus (Chenopodiaceae), which is confirmed to supersede the later Aellenia, is represented in Turkey by H. glaucus subsp. glaucus and H. hierochunticus. The former was known to occur in Kars and Ağri provinces but was found recently in Kayseri province as well. | Research Article Turk J Bot 33 (2009) 325-334 © TÜBİTAK doi: The genus Halothamnus Jaub. & Spach (Chenopodiaceae) in Turkey Helmut FREITAG1,*, Vagif ATAMOV2, Esat ÇETİN3, Mustafa ASLAN3 1Institute of Biology, Faculty of Science, University of Kassel, Heinrich-Plett-Str. 40, D-34132 Kassel.
