• Resumen

  • Ranunculus auricomus s.l. (Ranunculaceae) has been found only a few times in Greece since its first finding there by Haussknecht in 1893, all records coming from the area of the Katara pass in the Pindos mountains. All populations seem to be identical, and the Greek plants are described and named here as R. pindicola sp. nov. The new species is geographically isolated; the nearest localities of other members of the R. auricomus complex are in the Rila mountains of Bulgaria and the Sila mountains of Calabria in S Italy. According to present knowledge, R. pindicola is a rare endemic species of C Greece. It is threatened by eutrophication or abandonment of its meadow sites.
