Abstract/Summary

The Akrotiri Peninsula hosts one of the largest and most ecologically complex ecosystems in Cyprus, supporting rare, vulnerable and endangered flora and fauna. The present study concerns 5 plants included in the Red Data Book of the flora of Cyprus, namely Convolvulus lineatus, Linum maritimum, Lotus cytisoides, Mentha aquatica and Taraxacum aphrogenes and contains information on their geographical distribution at the Akrotiri Peninsula, together with population estimates and observations of their insect flower visitors. The main threats for each of the plants are presented. Current conservation efforts are highlighted and conservation measures are proposed.
