Abstract

TheRorippa pyrenaica group is represented in the area of Balkan Peninsula byR. pyrenaica (diploid),R. lippizensis (diploid), andR. thracica (diploid and tetraploid). They differ morphologically from all other EuropeanRorippa species by their pitted reticulate seed surface.Rorippa pyrenaica is characterized by ovoid elipsoidal siliculae, up to three times shorter than pedicels.Rorippa thracica andR. lippizensis possess linear siliquae, equal or longer than pedicels, they differ in length of fruits and length of petals. For all three species full synonymy, geographical distribution, ecological characteristics and karyotype data are provided.
