Centaurea), an endemic to the north-central and north-west Iberian Peninsula, was studied. Seven subspecies with reasonably well-defined areas are recognized, of which C. langei subsp. dominguezii E. López, Devesa & Arnelas is described as new, and for the others the following combinations are proposed: C. langei subsp. exilis (Arènes)E. López, Devesa & Arnelas, C. langei subsp. coutinhoi (Franco)E. López, Devesa & Arnelas, C. langei subsp. geresensis (Arènes)E. López, Devesa & Arnelas, C. langei subsp. kheilii (Pau)E. López, Devesa & Arnelas, and C. langei subsp. rothmalerana (Arènes)E. López, Devesa & Arnelas. Nomenclatural and taxonomic synonyms are provided for each taxon, most of which are typified. For C. langei subps. dominguezii, the chromosome number was also studied (2n = 18).engjournal article1797-2442https://doi.org/10.5735/085.048.0101restricted access582TaxonomyIberian PeninsulaCentaureinaeBotánica (Biología)2417.20 Taxonomía Vegetal
