Sažetak
The snake's head (Fritillaria meleagris L.) is an endemic European plant. It is more widespread in Croatia than was previously known. Most of its localities lie in the river valleys of northern Croatia, and there are just three localities on Velebit, in southern Croatia (Fig. 1). The phytosociological and ecological amplitude of the snake's head is much wider in Croatia than in the northern parts of its area. It grows in swamp and moist grasslands (Magnocaricetalia, Molinietalia and Arrhenatheretalia), in moist hedges (Prunetalia spinosae) and flood forests of peduncular oak (Alno-Quercion roboris, Fagetalia) (Tabs. 1, 2). The snake's head is in Croatia, as well as elsewhere in Europe, an endangered species and thus protected by low.
