الوصف النباتي

الأوراق

Leaves: One radical leaf, rarely perhaps two, produced from an independent bulb. Cauline leaves flat, linear to linear-lanceolate, very variable in length and width, often emerging from the underground part of the stem; when the stem is more clearly aerial, the cauline leaves and similar bracts form a loose involucral cluster below the flower or flowers. Leaves and bracts may exceed the inflorescence and can reach about 5 mm wide.

Inflorescence & flowers: Flowers solitary or arranged in a few-flowered umbel of 2 to 5 flowers. Pedicels thick, rigid, longer than the flowers. Perianth glabrous or appressed-pubescent. Tepals narrow, 10 to 20 mm or more, green outside with yellow margins, yellow inside, long acute-acuminate. Stamens variable in length, about half to two-thirds as long as the perianth; anthers short, linear-oblong.

الثمار والبذور

Fruit: Capsule obovate-oblong, about three times shorter than the tepals.

الانتشار الموثق

Lebanese distribution: Widely recorded by Mouterde from Khaldé, Beirut, Hazmiyé, Mkallès, Nahr-el-Kelb and Tripoli on the coast; from Rochmaya, Souq-el-Gharb, Baabda, ‘Aley, Beit Méri, below Beit Méri, Mar Moussa between Bhannès and Dhour Choueir, Bikfaya, Jabal Terbol and Ghiné in the lower mountain belt; from Jabal Barouk, Sofar, Jabal Kneissé, Laqlouq, Hasroun and Hadeth in the middle mountain belt; also from the summits of Lebanon, Qoubaiyat, Zahlé, Ksara, Ta‘naïl, Rayak and Baalbeck. The Qornet Chehwan material falls very naturally within this same lower-montane Beirut-Metn area, close to Mouterde’s records from Mkallès, Beit Méri, below Beit Méri, Mar Moussa and Bikfaya.

Native range: In the broad modern sense, POWO treats Gagea reticulata as native from southeastern and eastern Europe to the western Himalaya and the Arabian Peninsula. Mouterde gives a similarly broad range: North Africa, Balkans, western Asia, central Asia, Russia and Siberia.

لمحة نباتية

بنية النبات

بصيلة، Life-form & habit: Small bulbous perennial geophyte, extremely variable in size, usually 3 to 20 cm tall or sometimes taller. Plants often appear almost stemless because the cauline leaves may arise from the subterranean part of the stem. Flowering stem produced directly from one bulb, not from between two paired bulbs. The flowering bulb is often accompanied by a second bulb producing a long basal leaf. Bulbs enclosed in strong brown, coriaceous tunics prolonged upward into a reticulate sheath or sometimes into irregular fibres. Base of tunic and sheath sometimes surrounded by fine or slightly thickened ascending roots.
