Abstract
In connection with the taxonomic revision of the species of the genus Lappula Moench in the flora of Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan, a related group of L. subcaespitosa from the series Tianschanicae Popov ex Ovczinnikova of the section Microcarpae (Popov) Ovczinnikova was identified, which requires critical study. Analysis of all herbarium materials stored in LE, MW, TASH, AA, NSK, TK, KUZ Herbaria, including type specimens and new collections from the South Kazakhstan region of Kazakhstan, from the territory of the Sairam-Ugam National Park, as well as from the Boraldai Mountains included into the system of ridges of the Syrdarya Karatau, made it possible to determine the diagnostic and ecological features, as well as the area of distribution of L. subcaespitosa and L. nevskii Raenko, and also to describe the new species L. kuprijanovii Ovczinnikova for science. The absence of a holotype required the lectotyping of the name L. subcaespitosa.
