Abstract

This paper describes a floristic study of Deveboynu peninsula and its environments. The research area is in the B9 square according to the grid system. The research was carried out between 2001-2003. During the study period, 1602 vascular plant specimens were collected. After the identification of the specimens, the flora was determined to include 742 taxa belonging to 297 genus and 68 families. 50 taxa are endemic to Turkey and the rate of endemism is 6.74 %. According to the phytogeographical analysis, 350 taxa (47.17%) are Irano-Turanian elements, 37 taxa (4.98%) are Euro-Siberian elements (incl. Euxine elements), 35 taxa (4.71%) are Mediterranean elements, and 320 taxa (43.12%) are multi-regional or are taxa whose phytogeographical regions are unknown. The 3 largest families are Asteraceae (111 taxa), Fabaceae (65 taxa) and Brassicaceae (59 taxa). The 3 largest genera are Astragalus (25 taxa), Centaurea (14 taxa) and Silene (13 taxa).
