Knautia drymeja Heuff. subsp. centrifrons (Borbás) Ehrend.
Sinonimi / Synonyms: Knautia centrifrons Borbás;
Taxon incerto / Doubtful taxon
Recently, K. drymeja was regarded as a morphologically and genetically variable species without infraspecific taxa, also including K. gussonei (Rešetnik et al. 2016). The authors based their morphometric analyses on single specimens for 43 populations of the complex. Only a single voucher specimen of K. gussonei was studied. Furtermore, some characters useful for identification in morphometric analyses (i.e., presence of glandular hairs, see Bartolucci and Conti 2014) were not considered at all. Waiting for further studies, we are provisionally maintaining here the taxonomic treatment proposed by Conti et al. (2005).
