2. Gagea sect. Gagea

Lectotype (designated by Uphof 1958): G. bracteolaris Salisb. View in CoL (= G. pratensis (Pers.) Roem. View in CoL

Syn.: Gagea sect. Holobulbos (K.Koch) Boiss., Fl. Orient. 5: 203. (1882). Lectotype (designated by Levichev 1990): G. lutea View in CoL . Gagea sect. Nudiscaposae A.Terracc., Bull. Herb. Boiss. 5: 1062. (1905). Lectotype (designated by Levichev 1990): G. lutea View in CoL .

Putative synapomorphies:—basal leaves 1–2, probably flattened in transverse section; tunic leathery, dark grey to dark brown; inflorescence umbellate; filament glabrous; tepals acute at the apex, yellow adaxially, hardened and enlarged after anthesis.

Species included:— Gagea aipetriensis Levichev , G. capusii A.Terracc. , G. chanae Grossh. , G. helenae Grossh. , G. hiensis Pascher , G. lutea , G. megapolitana Henker , G. nakaiana Kitag. , G. podolica Schult. & Schult. f., G. pomeranica R.Ruthe , G. pratensis , G. pusilla (F.W.Schmidt) Sweet and G. transversalis (Pall.) Steven.

Note:— Gagea sect. Gagea is based on the type of the genus as designated by Uphof (1958). According to the ICBN ( McNeill et al. 2006) the typification of Levichev (1990) using G. lutea is thus rejected.
