Abstract:

Two new hybrids in the genus Thymus, Th. x indalicus BLANCA et al., nothosp. nov. [= Th. baeticus BOISS. ex LACAITA x Th. hyemalis LANGE subsp. hyemalis] and Th. x enicensis BLANCA et al., nothosp. nov. [= Th. hyemalis LANGE subsp. hyemalis x Th. zygis LOEFL. ex L. subsp. gracilis (BOISS.) R. MORALES] are described. Until now no hybrids of Th. hyemalis have been described, due to its early period of flowering and because it hybridizes with closely related species, making rather difficult the detection of such hybrids.
