Sažetak
Chouardia lakusicii (Šilić) Speta, a very rare species of the Croatian flora, was discovered during a study of the karstic flora on the Torac and Ivanova lazina mountains above the villages of Majkovi and Mravinjac, northeast from the village of Slano (Southern Dalmatia, Croatia). Until now, this species in Croatia was only described in one locality, north of Mt. Biokovo (the Zabiokovlje area). The present specimens were recorded at elevations of 720 - 780 m, within open rocky limestone and in the crevices in limestone blocks. The populations showed good viability. According to the International Union for Conservation of Nature methods for threat assessment, we propose that Ch. lakusicii should be included in the category of vulnerable taxa (VU ; criteria A3C, B2A, b (ii, v)) and included in the national red list.
