Some beautiful surprise. Turned that collecting some corms of Crocus henriki between them was one of Crocus mediotauricus, described from vicinity by HKEP
and Crocus chrysanthus from type locality in Republic of Macedonia, note the backside of flower segments.

Two still unidentified crocuses, were collected as "pulchellus" (#020) and as "chrysanthus" (#023) - must to see leaf croscut, but they are too small at moment.
And as last  - wild hybrid between chrysanthus and and some "biflorus" P & Schn 8924 - seem that was collected by Pasche and Dirk (by number). This year are several "doubles" blooming, but many has white, undeveloped anthers, too.
