how does one tell the difference between these two short stemmed
Mediterranean thogs?
Ornithogalum sigmoideum
Ornithogalum sintenisii
and is ?Ornithogalum nanum? one of these?

Plantarium considers O. nanum to be a synonym of O. sigmoideum.
The differences between O. sigmoideum http://www.plantarium.ru/page/
image/id/41420.html
and O. sintenisii http://www.plantarium.ru/page/image/id/70751.html
aren?t easy to spot; might need a key.
Freyn was the author of both species so there must be differences.

O. sintenisii: ?...leaves few, lance-linear to linear, deeply
canaliculate, recurved, reaching 2-3 times the height of the inflorescence,
2-4 mm broad; scape 5-12 cm long , bearing 2-4 flowers, fruiting pedicels
arcuately ascending, longer than the lanceolate bracts, perianth segments
oblong-lanceolate, white, broadly green-banded beneath, 15-20mm long,
short-acuminate, sometimes mucronate; stamens half the length of perianth
segments...?

O. schmalhausenii: ?...scapes slender, weak, 4-10 cm long; leaves few,
flat, narrowly linear to linear, 3-5 mm broad, rather strongly pointed at
both ends, straight or arcuately recurved, equaling to half as long again
as the scape, 6-20 mm long; inflorescence 1-3 flowered, rarely containing
up to 8 flowers, pedicels slender, at first short and more or less erect,
at length much elongated (3-5 cm) more or less arcuately upturned and
greatly exceeding the lanceolate bracts; fruiting pedicels sometimes
slightly thickened at the apex and at curvature; perianth segments 10-15 mm
long, oblong-lanceolate, obtusish, broadly green-banded beneath...?

O sigmoideum: ?...scapes slender, short; linear linear or
spatulate-linear, broadly canaliculate, white-banded beneath, cucullate,
twice the length of scape or longer, 3-6 mm broad,; fruiting pedicels
strongly twice arched (S-shaped), conspicuously clavately thickened above
