Abstract

Following the study of Balearic taxa of the genus Viola, two new nomenclatural combinations are proposed: Viola suavis Bieb. subsp. barceloi (Nyman) Orell & Romo, comb. nova; and Viola odorata L. subsp. stolonifera (Rodríguez Femenías) Orell & Romo, comb. nova. Three new nothosubspecies from the island of Majorca are described: Viola alba L. nothosubsp. neusii Orell & Romo, nothosusp. nova (= Viola alba subsp. dehnhardtii x V. jaubertiana); Viola alba L. nothosubsp. bonaefidei Orell & Romo, nothosubsp. nova (= V. Alba subsp. dehnhardtii x V. suavis subsp. barceloi); and Viola suavis Bieb. nothosubsp. cardonae nothosubsp. nova (= Viola suavis subsp. barceloi x V. Jaubertiana). The chorology and ecology of the Balearic taxa of the genus Viola are presented and some of the oldest reports, which are probably erroneous, are discussed.
