Based on several field surveys and on the study of original material, we have identified three new species of Orobanche L. s.s. (Orobanchaceae) new to the flora of Tunisia. Orobanche alba Willd., O. calendulae Pomel, and O. gracilis Sm. are reported as new for the country, and the occurrence of O. rapum-genistae Thuill. is confirmed. The lectotypification of O. rapum-genistae is here proposed with a specimen housed in Genève (G). The geographical distribution of the four taxa in Tunisia is given, and details of habitats and hosts are provided. Altogether, the genus Orobanche in Tunisia now includes 18 species; a dichotomous key is proposed to facilitate the identification of these taxa.
Nouveaux signalements du genre Orobanche L. (Orobanchaceae) dans la flore tunisienne avec lectotypification du nom O. rapum-genistae Thuill.
Sur la base de nombreux inventaires de terrain et de l'étude du matériel original, nous avons identifié trois espèces d'Orobanche L. s.s. (Orobanchaceae). Orobanche alba Willd., O. calendulae Pomel et O. gracilis Sm. sont nouvelles pour la flore de la Tunisie, et la présence d'O. rapum-genistae Thuill. est confirmée. Nous proposons la lectotypification de O. rapum-genistae avec un spécimen hébergé à Genève (G). La distribution géographique des quatre taxons en Tunisie est donnée, des détails sur leurs habitats et leurs plantes-hôtes sont également fournis. Au total, le genre Orobanche en Tunisie comprend 18 espèces; une clé dichotomique est proposée pour faciliter l'identification des différents taxons.
