Zusammenfassung:Acantholimon köycegizicum Doğan Doğan & Akaydin sp. nova and A. göksunicum Doğan & Akaydin sp. nova (Plumbaginaceae) are described and illustrated from Anatolia, Turkey. Acantholimon köycegizicum grows on serpentine mountain slopes between köyceğiz and Kaplicalar (C2 Muğla) in South West Anatolia, and A. göksunicum grows on calcareous mountain steppe in Göksun (B6 Kahramanmaraş) in SE Anatolia. The species are closely related to A. calvertii, an endemic confined to East Anatolia. Diagnostic morphological characters are discussed. A revised key to Turkish Acantholimon species with 2—5-branched terminal spikes and previous years' stem with persistent circinate leaf bases is also presented along with notes on the ecology, biogeography and conservational status of the new species.
