New distribution areas of Kadıncık shrub Flueggea anatolica Gemici determined in the Andırın region, Kahramanmaraş/Turkey

Abstract

Kadıncık shrub Flueggea anatolica Gemici , which was recently found in Turkey, is a relict and endemic shrub species. The two known distribution areas of the species so far occur in Tarsus district, Mersin province and Kozan district, Adana province. Different five new distribution areas of this species were found by us in Andırın district, Kahramanmaraş province. In this article, these new distribution areas of the species were introduced. Occurring natural distribution of Kadıncık shrub in the Andırın region is quite important for Turkey’s biodiversity. It was determined that this species was new record for C6 square in flora of Turkey. The species has a very local distribution between elevations of 380 and 1160 m in the Andırın region and a total of 136 mature individuals of the species were determined. The species is generally found in karstic lands and together with maquis elements. The mentioned distribution areas and gene resources of Kadıncık shrub, of which existence is very limited and under extinction risk in the future, should be protected
