Abstract

A new hybrid of the genus Fritillaria, F. x makotoi Hitoshi Sato & Naruh., from Honshu, Japan is described. The plant is believed to be a natural hybrid between F. amabilis and F. ayakoana. This hybrid differs from F. amabilis by narrowly funnel-shaped flowers, from F. ayakoana by nectaries at almost basal part and narrowly oblong tepals.
