• Recent research has identified a new species of the genus Scaligeria, the rhizomatous perennial S. alziarii, endemic to cyprus. Prior to the discovery of this species, the biennial S. napiformis was the only identified taxon of the genus in cyprus. Molecular studies corroborate the placement of the new taxon in Scaligeria and its rank as a separate species.
