Aconitum firmum (Czech: oměj tuhý, Polish: tojad mocny, Ukrainian: Аконіт міцний, Romanized: Akonіt mіtzniy) is a species of monkshood that is found in Southern Poland, Slovakia, and Czechia, with a few instances in Ukraine and Romania.[1][2]
Appearance
Aconitum firmum has indigo flowers that are about 2 centimeters big, and can grow up to around 40 centimeters tall.[3]
Toxicity
Like all monkshoods, Aconitum firmum is highly poisonous. All parts of the plant, with the highest concentration being in the roots and seeds, contain aconitine, which is a potent nerve poison.
Conservation
In Poland, Aconitum firmum is a protected species, along with all other monkshood species in Poland. The subspecies A. firmum subsp. moravicum is recognized as Near Threatened by the IUCN Red List,[4] although A. firmum itself has not been evaluated by the IUCN.[5]
Taxonomy
Name
Aconitum firmum was named by Ludwig Reichenbach. The species name firmum comes from the inflection of the Latin word firmus, meaning stable and firm.[6] The Czech, Polish, and Ukrainian common names both reflect on this and can be literally translated to "strong aconite".
Subspecies
Aconitum firmum is divided into 6 subspecies and 1 variety[7] which are:
- Aconitum firmum subsp. bucovinense (Zapal.) Aschers. & Graebn.
- Aconitum firmum subsp. firmum
- Aconitum firmum subsp. maninense (Skalický) Starm.
- Aconitum firmum subsp. moravicum V.Skalick
- Aconitum firmum subsp. paxii Starm.

- Aconitum firmum var. portae-ferratae Starm. & Mitka
