Geranium ocellatum var. persicum Pau
Similar to Geranium ocellatum in habit, but differs in the larger (up to 3 mm long), transverse, deeply furrowed and puberulous mericarps.
Fl. Per.: March-April.
Type: ‘in monte Gebel Akadar regni Mascate’ Aucher-Eloy 4303 (G, iso. K!).
Distribution: NE. Africa, Egypt, Arabia, S.W. Iran and Baluchistan. Sparingly recorded from Pakistan. It is very close to Geranium ocellatum but also bears some resemblance to Geranium molle and Geranium divaricatum; it can be distinguished from the former by the puberulous mericarps and latter by the entire petals.
