new nothospecies, taxonomy, hybridization, North Africa, autumn floweringAbstract
A new notospecies is described: Narcissus ×urenae, resulting from the cross between Narcissus obsoletus and Narcissus papyraceus. In addition, for the correct characterization of one of the parents, Narcissus obsoletus, the distinctive morphological characteristics of this species and the most related taxa are detailed, given the taxonomic discrepancies in the treatment of daffodils with white corollas and strictly autumnal flowering in several areas of the Mediterranean, differentiating several taxonomic entities, such Narcissus serotinus, N. deficiens, N. obsoletus and N. elegans, depending on their geographical distribution and specific characteristics.
