Description

Gagea sect. Lloydia (Salisb.) Peruzzi, J. - M.Tison, A.Peterson & J.Peterson

Analyses of nrITS sequences resulted in a highly supported clade (BP 95, Figure 1) comprising L. serotina (L.) Reichenbach (1830: 102). and L. delicatula (Zarrei et al. 2009). Analyses of plastid sequences alone told another story. All former Lloydia species occurred as a polytomy with clade A, which comprises G. sect. Plecostigma, which is where they are placed here.
