Annotation: Cymbalaria minor was described as Linaria microcalyx var. minor based on material from Lefkada (among others from »cap Tsouana«, the type locality) as well as from Cephalonia (Cufodontis 1936b: 235). Apart from the Ionian Islands it is also known from the neighbouring Acarnanian und Epirotic mainland (see Speta 1986; Tan & Iatrou 2001: 328); however, it should be investigated, whether the mountain population of N Peloponnesus, usually included in this taxon, are actually identical. The chromosome number is 2n=28, as determined on plants from Cephalonia (Damboldt & Phitos 1971: 787; Speta 1986: 49; Samaropoulou & al. 2013a: 220). [2016-08-05]
