Abstract
The Endemic and Rare Non-Endemic Plants of Kirişli Mountain (Isparta-Turkey)
3627 specimens were collected during 20 scientific field trips to Kirişli mountain (Isparta). By evaluation of these specimens, 114 families, 505 genera, 1113 species, 30 subspecies and 9 varieties (1152 taxa) were determined. 1046 of these taxa are natural and 67 cultivated. Number of endemic species are 150 (14.34%). Phytogeographical regions of these endemic species that were determined in the research area are Irano-Turanian (64 species), Mediterranean (34 species). The distribution of the threat categories of these endemic species are as follows: 5 species CR, 2 species EN, 7 species VU, 23 species NT and 113 species LC. The threat categories of rare non-endemic species are as follows: 2 species CR and 1 species VU. Alcea pisidica Hub.-Mor. and Dumaniana gelendostensis Yıld. & B.Selvi are previously known from the type collection, and gathered again from the same locality. CR, EN, VU and DD categories of species are discussed.
