Campanula sibirica L. ssp. divergentiformis (Jav.) Domin

Flora Europaea           A subspecies which frequently hardly can be distinguished from the typical species (taller much branched plant, with larger flowers but longer calyx and basal leaves dilated to the base) and which inhabits the low altitude calcareous mountains (the typical species usually in the xeric and mesoxeric grasslands). Galda Valley, Trascau Mountains, Alba county, on the rocks near the verge of the roads, at the basal part of the Cailor Creek (from where a path climbs towards Piatra Cetii calcareous massif). dr.
