Catalan flora

Cat

The list of vascular flora of Catalonia includes approximately 3,600 species and subspecies. According to sources consulted between 7% and 11% of plants are threatened.

The extinction of 17 plants is confirmed and it is estimated that 37 species of the 109 classified as endangered, could disappear in a short time.

Among the various works that collect the biodiversity of the territory we would highlight the 4 volumes of “Flora of the Catalan Countries” by Oriol de Bolòs and Josep Vigo, or “Flora Manual of the Catalan Countries”, which is a practical manual aimed at recognizing all vascular plants.

Less current, but a small marvel are the 6 volumes of “Flora de Catalunya” by Joan Cadevall, free of rights and accessible on the Internet both for consultation and for download in pdf or epub format on the website of Archive.org

In the Flora Catalana website is possible download the 6 volums from the 1963 edition in pdf format.
