After the studying the original material of Orobanche centaurina Bertol. (Orobanchaceae) deposited in BOLO, a forgotten species described from Massa (Central Italy) parasitizing Centaurea paniculata L., and compared it with the type of O. kochii F.W. Schultz and with the types of others taxa actually considered synonyms of this, we concluded that the name of Bertoloni is the correct one for this species. Después de estudiar el material original de Orobanche centaurina Bertol.

Schultz y con los tipos de otros táxones actualmente considerados sinónimos de éste, estimamos que el nombre de Bertoloni es el correcto y prioritario para esta especie.

In this paper a neglected taxon of Orobanche s. str. is shown to deserve specific rank for combining a set of correlated morphological features and a particular host (Carlina). As it had already been validly named at varietal and subva- rietal rank by J. A. Guimaraes it needn't be validly described, but is here typified, raised to the rank of species, thoroughly described, illustrated with detailed drawings and colour photographs and demonstrated to occur well beyond its terra classica not only in Portugal and Spain, but probably also in southern France, Corsica and Sicily. In addition, some morphological, chorological and iconographical additions to the knowledge of the recently described Orobanche subbaetica will be done. Key words: Orobanchaceae, Mediterranean flora, Carlina, parasitic plants, biosystematics, bio- geography, evolution.

After carefully reviewing its protologue and lectotype, it is con- cluded that Orobanche foetida Poir. (1789) is an earlier synonym of Orobanche variegata Wallr. (1825) and cannot be used for the western Mediterranean species to which in recent times it has been generally applied. Unless the conservation of that concept of the binomen Orobanche foetida is proposed and approved, that Iberian and North African plant must be called Orobanche hookeriana Ball. Key words: Nomenclature, Orobanche foetida, O. hookeriana, O. variegata, Mediterranean flora, Orobanchaceae, broomrape. RESUMEN: ?Que es y que se entiende por Orobanche foetida Poir., Voy. Barbarie 2: 195(-196) (1789)? Tras un detenido estudio de su protologo y lectotipo, se concluye que Orobanche foetida Poir. (1789) es un sinonimo prioritario de Oro- banche variegata Wallr. (1825) y no puede usarse para la especie del Mediterraneo occidental a la que en los ultimos tiempos venia por lo general aplicandosele. Mien- tras la conservacion en ese uso del binomen Orobanche foetida no sea propuesta y aprobada, esa especie iberica y norteafricana debe llamarse Orobanche hookeriana Ball. Palabras clave: nomenclatura, Orobanche foetida, O. hookeriana, O. variegata, flora mediterranea, Orobanchaceae, jopo.

The specific parasite of Lactuca (Compositae) described in 2005from the Iberian Peninsula as Phelipanche inexspectata (Orobanchaceae) andknown so far in northeastern Spain and southern France, is shown to also occur inmountain areas of northern Africa, where it had been previously described under theneglected name Phelipanche cernua. Given the recent proposal to consider theaforementioned Lactuca parasite a mere variant of Phelipanche schultzii, we stressthe neat differences between both species.

In the light of recent research that has synonymized the parasites of Echinops described from France and Serbia to Orobanche kochii F.W. Schultz (a distinct southeastern European species, mainly parasitic on Centaurea and often confounded with O. elatior Sutton), we reassess the taxonomic status of the Echinops parasite from the Ebro basin and conclude that it must be described as a new species. By the way, we demonstrate that O. leptantha Pomel is a prioritary name for the species for which Pau coined the binomen O. icterica, a vicariant of O. elatior widespread in Spain, and we confirm the existence of the true O. elatior in Spain.
