A systematic revision of two taxa belonging to the genus Vicia L. section Cracca S.F. Gray, V. benghalensis L. and V. villosa Roth, led us to propose, in a previous contribution, a new combination and a new status for an endemic taxon of Morocco: V. benghalensis subsp. heterocalyx var. simulans (Maire) Hormat. This taxon, as well as V. benghalensis var. benghalensis show a 2n = 14 chromosome number, whereas V. benghalensis subsp. heterocalyx var. heterocalyx gives 2n = 12.
