Summary

We report for the first time in the wild in the Iberian Peninsula the hybrid species Narcissus ×monochromus, resulting from a cross between N. cyclamineus and N. pseudonarcissus, both native species in the region growing close to where their wild hybrid has now been found. We characterised the hybrid morphologically and compared it with both parental species.
