• Resumen

  • Cousinia saloukensis, a narrow endemic from ne Iran, is described as a species new to science, illustrated and its affinities are discussed. a high morphological similarity between the new species and the eastern members (mainly in e afghanistan) of C. sect. Eriocousinia is contradicted by a relationship with species of sect. Serratuloides revealed in a previous nrITS phylogeny. In view of the incongruent molecular and morphological evidences, the new species is, for the time being, not assigned to any of the known sections.
