Novelties and new records in the flora of North Macedonia

Aco Teofilovski

Abstract


Epipactis purpurata Sm. and Leontodon saxatile Lam. are reported as new species in the flora of North Macedonia. The first one is found in the forest area near Bezgaštevo village, southwest of Berovo, and the latter in the central part of Kičevo, on the quay of the Sušica River. The collected specimens of L. saxatile are perennial plants with shortly beaked inner achenes, clearly belonging to subsp. saxatile. New localities are reported for the following eight rare plants: Aconitum lycoctonum subsp. neapolitanum (Ten.) Nyman, Bidens frondosus L., Carex tomentosa L., Dittrichia viscosa (L.) Greuter, Erysimum korabense Kümmerle & Jáv., Lactuca aurea (Vis. & Pančić) Stebbins, Phegopteris connectilis (Michx.) Watt, and Thymus oehmianus Ronniger & Soska. Data from the literature on their distribution in the country are also presented.
