Abstract

The rare myco-heterotrophic orchid Epipogium aphyllum Swartz was recorded on Mt Velebit for the first time. It was found in beech and fir dominated primeval forest (ass. Omphalodo-Fagetum) in Klepina duliba. After Mt Medvednica, Plitvi~ka jezera and Samoborsko gorje, this is the fourth record of that species in Croatia in the last eighty years.
