Abstract

Populations of the Minuartia verna group (sect. Polymechana Mattf.) from the Západne, Vysoké and Belianske Tatry Mts (W Carpathians) and from the Svidovec and Čorna Hora Mts (Ukrainian E Carpathians) are classified as a separate species Minuartia pauciflora (Kit. ex Kanitz) Dvořáková; the appropriate nomenclatural correction is proposed. Comments on speciation, taxonomic relationships, chromosome counts, distribution and plant sociology are given. A brief morphological comparison with M. rubella (Wahlenb.) Hiern (arctic zone of Holoarctis), M. gerardii (Willd.) Hayek (Alps and Pyrenees) and M. corcontica Dvořáková (Krkonoše Mts, N Czech Republic) is presented.
