Found by H. Kerndorff & E. Pasche in Hatay province of Turkey near Alanyayla, S of Antakya at altitude 1200 m. Flowers are light violet with darker stripes and creamy yellow throat edged by narrow dark yellow „v” shaped edge but main featurer separating it from other stocks of C. kotschyanus s.l. is its stoloniferous habit. It makes smaller corms, too. Most likely it belongs to another one, still undescribed species, more related to C. hatayensis, having same chromosome number, but forming leaves only in spring and by this and some other features it more resembles typical C. kotschyanus from Cilician Taurus.
