我们不在一个频道上，其实拉丁文很清楚，只有crocus sativus 才是番红花，其他不是

• Crocus chrysanthus, also called “snow crocus” because it tends to bloom at least two weeks before others in the same genus.

• C. tommasinianus, known also as “Tommasini’s crocus,” is named in honor of the long-ago mayor of Trieste, Italy (then part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire), Muzio G. Spirito de Tommasini. He also happened to be a botanist. You may hear this species referred to as “woodland crocus” or even simply “tommies.”

• C. vernus, which is sometimes known as “Dutch crocus” is native to the Pyrenees, Balkans, and Alps and is grown prolifically in – you guessed it – Holland. This species is larger and two weeks later to bloom than C. crysanthus.

• C. sativus, the saffron crocus,  also called “autumn crocus” because it blooms in the fall, as opposed to the late winter and early spring flowering of other species. This is the species used to produce the spice saffron. Not to be confused with Colchicum autumnale, a different flower in Colchicaceae family that is also known as “autumn crocus.”

• C. sieberi, a small, early bloomer that grows wild on the Greek island of Crete. For this reason, it’s often referred to as the Cretan crocus.

所有跟帖： 

• 中文crocus sativus 的翻译是番红花，crocus 的中文是番红花属，要看后面的那个词 -dudaan- ♂ (0 bytes) () 04/16/2022 postreply 18:48:08

• 维基的做法是其他的crocus 必须加前缀，而 真正的crucus sativus 不加前缀 -dudaan- ♂ (163 bytes) () 04/16/2022 postreply 18:56:38

• 维基条目的质量参差不齐的。你看左上方的是Crocus saticus吗？显然不是。 -彩烟游士- ♂ (0 bytes) () 04/16/2022 postreply 19:13:38

• 的确不是，中文植物名称真的不行，紫苑属的东西都叫紫苑，又有正宗的紫苑（可入药的） -dudaan- ♂ (187 bytes) () 04/16/2022 postreply 19:28:38

• 用拉丁文当然更准确，但是 -彩烟游士- ♂ (182 bytes) () 04/16/2022 postreply 19:11:49

• 中文没有区分春天与秋天的番红花，我在文章中指出了作为藏红花原料的番红花是秋天开花的那种。至于中文名字把dudaan给出的 -良邑- ♂ (128 bytes) () 04/17/2022 postreply 05:25:56
