In total, five taxa belonging to Thymus sect. Serpyllum (Th. richardiisubsp. nitidus, Th. longicaulis and Th. praecox subsp. parvulus) and Th. sect. Hyphodromi (Th. spinulosus and Th. paronychioides)occur in Sicily. For each one, information about taxonomy, habitat, phenology, chromosome number and distribution areprovided. Furthermore, the name Thymus pedicillatus Lojac. is here typified. Finally, an analytical key for the identification ofthe studied taxa is proposed.
