Sažetak
The existence of 469 vascular plants (433 species, 31 subspecies, four varieties and one form within 296 genera and 77 families), of which 465 taxa have been registered for the first time, were determined on the island of @irje and on the small islands around it during 1997–2001. Seventy four cultivated species were registered, too. According to plant geography analysis, plants of the Mediterranean floral element (241 species, 51.39%) were determined in the greatest abundance, following by plants of the South European floral elements (92 species, 19.61%) and the widespread plants (80 species, 17.05%). An analysis of life forms showed the domination of therophytes (234 species, 49.89%), followed by hemicryptophytes (119 species, 25.37%), geophytes (39 species, 8.32%), phanerophytes (37 species, 7.89%), chamaephytes (37 species, 7.89%) and hydrophytes (3 species, 0.64%).
