This list of ''Scilla'' species shows the accepted species names within the genus ''Scilla'', which are predominantly spring perennial plants in the order of Asparagales, and the Asparagaceae (amaryllis) family. The common name is squill, but this has also been applied to a number of taxa not included in ''Scilla''. The number of species varies from 30 to about 80, depending on how narrowly or widely the genus is defined. In the narrow circumscription (e.g Speta 1998) a number of species are segregated into eight separate smaller genera. Species of ''Chionodoxa'' are often included with ''Scilla'' and some classifications list those as a separate section of the genus ''Scilla'' (section ''Chionodoxa'') (sec, all other species being included in section ''Scilla''. List , ''Plants of the World Online'' accepted the following species: *'' Scilla achtenii'' *'' Scilla africana'' *'' Scilla albanica'' *'' Scilla albinerve'' *''Scilla alinihatiana'' *'' Scilla amoena'' – ...

Scilla Alinihatiana
''Scilla'' () is a genus of about 30 to 80 species of bulb-forming perennial herbaceous plants in the family Asparagaceae, subfamily Scilloideae. Sometimes called the squills in English, they are native to woodlands, subalpine meadows, and seashores throughout Europe, Africa and the Middle East.

Theophrastus described ''Scilla hyacinthoides'' (''skilla''), and more briefly '' S. autumnalis'' and '' S. bifolia'' in his ''Historia plantarum'', where he mentions "those of squill" (σκῠ...

''Scilla buekkensis'' (syn. '' Scilla drunensis'' subsp. ''buekkensis'' (Speta) Kereszty) is a species of '' Scilla'' native to some beech and hornbeam forests in Hungary and Slovakia in Central Europe.Letz, R., UhrÃková, A. & Májovský, J. (1999). Chromosome numbers of several interesting taxa of the flora of Slovakia. ''Biologia'', Bratislava 54: 43-49.Kochjarová, J. (2005). ''Scilla bifolia'' group in the Western Carpathians and adjacent part of the Pannonian lowland: annotated chromosome counts. ''Preslia'' (Praha) 77: 317–326. Availablonline(pdf).

The plant derives its name from the Bükk Mountains in North-East Hungary. It is a bulb-bearing herbaceous perennial plant. The flowering stem bears pyramidal raceme of a few flowers; each flower is blue, with six tepals, each 12 ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
