'Illyrica' (Mutius von Tommasini, 1875, Lago di Garda to northeast shores of the Adriatic). Dark blue self. Dykes noticed that this represents a series of plants that grade into each other; with 'Cengialtii' in the north to 'Illyrica' in the south. He notes 'Illyrica' is slightly taller, more variable in color than 'Cengialti' including dark blue and with variable beards from yellow and white to an unusual dark purple.
