Muscari commutatum türünün varlığı Sicilya (İtalya), Midilli ve Samos adalarından (Ege Denizi) bilinmekteyken, Antalya (Türkiye) ili sınırlarından iki farklı lokaliteden toplanmıştır. Bu çalışmada, Türkiye için yeni kayıt olarak belirlenen türün betimi ve yayılışının yanı sıra, SEM aracılığıyla çekilmiş tohum yüzeyi ve karyotip analizine de yer verilmiştir. Morfolojik bulgulara göre, taksonomik açıdan türün en yakın akrabası İsrail ve Ürdün’de doğal olarak yayılış gösteren M. filiforme’dir. Tür ilk bakışta perigon yapısı bakımından M. latifolium, rengârenk çiçeği ile de M. inconstrictum türüyle benzerdir. Türün kromozom sayısı cinsin diğer mensuplarının büyük bir kısmında olduğu gibi 2n=18 olup, diploittir. Tohum yüzeyi süsleri ise ağsıdır.

While the existence of Muscari commutatum is known from Sicily (Italy), Lesbos and Samos Islands (Aegean Sea), it was collected from two different localities at the borders of Antalya Province (Turkey). In this study, besides the description and distribution of the newly recorded species for Turkey, the seed surface taken by SEM and karyotype analysis were included. According to morphological findings, the taxonomically closest relative of the species is M. filiforme, which naturally occurs in Israel and Jordan. At first glance, M. commutatum appears like M. latifolium for perigonal structure and M. inconstrictum with its concolorous flowers. The chromosome number of the species is 2n=18, as in most other members of the genus, and it is diploid. Seed surface ornamentations are reticulate.
