Annotation: Crocus mazziaricus was described based on material from Lefkada (»circa radices montis Cariae et in viciniâ Caradiaticae«) (Herbert 1845a: 3). Halácsy thought that Mazziari's »Crocus reticulatus« (Mazziari 1834a: 454) from Corfu might represent C. cancellatus (Halácsy 1904: 199), but Mazziari referred to a spring flowering (and probably blue coloured) species. A recent record of »C. cf. cancellatus« from Corfu (Borkowsky 1994: 133) needs confirmation as well. [2018-10-02]
