A new hexaploid species of fine-leaved fescue from Festucasect.Festuca ( Ardenghi, Pallanza & Foggi, ) endemic to the Sila plateau is described. The new taxon shows morphological affinities with species of the group from which it can be distinguished by higher ploidy, ecology, and leaf cross section anatomy. ddRADseq data suggests could be a local hexaploid descendant/derivate of the widespread diploid . Its distribution is restricted to several localities in the Sila highlands of the Southern Apennines, Italy.
描述了一种来自羊茅属羊茅组(Ardenghi, Pallanza & Foggi)的新六倍体细叶羊茅,它是意大利西拉高原特有的物种。这个新分类群与该组的其他物种在形态上有相似性,但可以通过更高的倍性、生态特征和叶片横切面解剖结构来区分。ddRADseq数据表明,它可能是广泛分布的二倍体的本地六倍体后代/衍生物。其分布仅限于意大利亚平宁山脉南部西拉高地的几个地点。
