Varieties that have been defined on the basis of a few characters and locations are unjustified because such unique phenotypic characters have probably been affected by the environment. Therefore, three new synonyms are proposed in this study (Malus transitoria var. glabrescens, M. transitoria var. calycomeles, and M. transitoria var. centralasiatica).</p> <p>The vertical vicariance of Malus kansuensis (distribution below 3000 m), M. toringoides (2600‒3050 m) and M. transitoria (above 3000 m) is very remarkable, and there are no obvious reproductive barriers between them.As a consequence, hybrids that show characters of both parents could be found in the contact zones; for example, the specimens from Maerkang (Sichuan, China) exhibit continuous morphological variation between M. transitoria and M. toringoides.</p> </div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/273C87B4801F3D67C520072D100DFA0C	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
