A new species, Hedysarum dazkiriense, in the genus Hedysarum (Fabaceae) was described and illustrated here and is only
known from Dazkırı district in Afyonkarahisar Province in Türkiye. The species belongs to sect. Multicaulia and it is closely
related to H. syriacum, but it is distinguished from it by having 5–8 pairs and smaller leaflets (3–7 × 1–2 mm, not 4–6 pairs
and 15–22 × 5–12 mm); calyx 2–3 mm long (not 8–9 mm), standard 14–16 mm long (not 18–22 (–24) mm). Also, it is similar
to H. pestalozzae, but distinctly different from it by having smaller leaflets (3–7 × 1–2 mm, not 5–14 × 2.5–4 mm), smaller
calyx (2–3 mm long not 4–6 mm), lomentum sparsely hirsute and without setae (not densely tomentose, with or without
setae). Taxonomic descriptions, images, the identification key, phenology, palinology and the IUCN threat category of the
new species were presented. In addition, the geographical distribution of H. dazkiriense, H. syriacum and H. pestalozzae
