Eryngium palmatum Pančić & Vis.
Synonymy
Notes
In Greece confined to the Prespa area (Nomos Florina), together the southern limit of the total range of this Balkan endemic. Previous records from elsewhere in Greece (Nomoi Pella, Pieria, Kozani) are considered incorrect, referring to E. wiegandii (A. Strid).
All Greek records of E. palmatum are likely to refer to E. wiegandii. The nearest confirmed locality for the former is on Mt Pelister in former S Jugoslavia where it grows in openings of Pinus peuce forest over granite (A. Strid).
