Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Speciesbox Hyacinthoides paivae is a species of bluebell in the genus Hyacinthoides native to the north-western part of the Iberian Peninsula. It lives chiefly in shady woodlands, and grows up to Шаблон:Convert tall, producing a cluster of up to 18 pale blue flowers in spring. It was formally described in 1996, having previously been identified as belonging to the related species H. italica.

Description

Hyacinthoides paivae is a perennial plant which grows from bulbs that are typically Шаблон:Convert × Шаблон:Convert.[1][2] Each bulb produces 4–7 (more rarely 2–12) basal leaves, each Шаблон:Convert long and Шаблон:Convert wide.[1][2] The stems are Шаблон:Convert long, and bear an inflorescence comprising 6–18 flowers in a multilateral raceme.[1][2] Each flower is attached by a pedicel Шаблон:Convert long, and is itself Шаблон:Convert long by Шаблон:Convert wide.[1][2] H. paivae can be told apart from H. italica by its broader leaves and larger flowers; H. hispanica differs in having longer, narrower, unscented and bell-shaped flowers.[1]

Distribution and ecology

Hyacinthoides paivae is endemic to the north-western part of the Iberian Peninsula, including western parts of Galicia (A Coruña, Ourense and Pontevedra provinces) and north-western parts of Portugal (Beira Litoral, Douro Litoral, Minho and Trás-os-Montes provinces).[2] Material of an unidentified species from the Sierra de la Demanda, a small mountain range on the border between Burgos province and La Rioja, matches H. paivae genetically.[3]

H.paivae was confused with this species, H. italica, seen growing at the Berne Botanical Gardens.

H. paivae occurs in oak woodland and pine woods growing over Ulex, Erica cinerea and Cistus spp., as well as other shady habitats. It also occurs occasionally on coastal cliffs, and in mown meadows.[1] The typical flowering period is March and April, although it can be as late as June in upland areas, such as Monte Pindo.[1]

Taxonomic history

In 1990, bluebells assigned to the species Hyacinthoides italica were reported from north-western Spain. Later analyses of the species morphology demonstrated that the plants did not belong to H. italica, which is only otherwise found near the FrenchItalian border.[1] Instead, it was realised that they represented a new species, which was named Hyacinthoides paivae by Santiago Ortiz and Juan Rodríguez-Oubiña in 1996, the specific epithet Шаблон:Lang honouring the Portuguese botanist Jorge Paiva.[1]

The holotype, a specimen from Dumbría, A Coruña province, Spain, is held at the herbarium of the Шаблон:Lang; isotypes are also kept there, and at the University of Coimbra, the Шаблон:Lang and Шаблон:Lang in Madrid, the Шаблон:Lang in Pontevedra, and at the Natural History Museum and Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew in London.[2]

Ortiz and Rodríguez-Oubiña initially placed the species in "Hyacinthoides sect. Somera", but more recent molecular phylogenetic analysis could not confirm any of the existing sections in the genus, and placed it instead in an informal group alongside H. non-scripta, H. hispanica and H. cedretorum.[3]
