It has also been morphologically compared with discoid and disciform capitulated species in Turkey. This study includes its detailed description, diagnostic characters, original photographs, geographical distribution, habitat and ecology, conservation status, and identification key. The comparison of Tripleurospermum eskilensis with closely related species was conducted in terms of morphological characteristics, pollen, achene morphology and anatomy, stomatal length, and molecular phylogenetic analysis.
