I often find when I have a few minutes to work on the wiki that it turns into much longer as I try to sort out what the current thinking is on what to call a plant we have pictured on the wiki. In this case the photos were from Ian Young. I'm also missing Jim McKenney who was so good about explaining about spelling of plant names. After puzzling about where to put the photos I remembered if as long as we include the namers of a plant name we are safe so I put the photos with Fritillaria burnatii which may now be considered to be Fritillaria meleagris ssp. burnatii or Fritillaria tubaeformis var. burnatii or even Fritillaria tubiformis var. burnatii. Below is what I wrote, but am happy to hear from Fritillaria experts about what to call it. Fritillaria burnatii (Planch.) Backh. was considered by The Plant List in 2012 to be a synonym of Fritillaria meleagris ssp. burnatii (Planch.) Rix. That subspecies was named in 1978. It is described by Plants of the World Online on the Fritillaria meleagris page as having purple perianth-segments, filaments that are smooth or sparsely covered with short, rounded projections, a smooth style, and as found in alpine pastures in France and Italy. However that subspecies is not listed in Plants of the World Online in 2021 and Fritillaria burnatii is listed as a synonym of Fritillaria tubaeformis var. burnatii (Planch.) Rouy (named in 1910.) IPNI and Plants of the World Online have it named under that spelling, but Wikipedia says the correct spelling of that species should be Fritillaria tubiformis.
