• Centaurea zaferii Negaresh is proposed as a new name for Centaurea foliosa Boiss. & Kotschy published by Boissier in 1875, a later homonym of Centaurea foliosa Gand. published by Gandoger in 1873. The description of Centaurea zaferii is amended with characters of mature flowers and achenes. Centaurea zaferii is morphologically similar to Centaurea charrelii Halácsy & Dörfler and a discussion of their diagnostic characters is presented. In addition, the geographical distribution and habitat of Centaurea zaferii are presented.
