Abstract

The paper provides a list of 160 vascular plant taxa new for the flora of the island of Krapanj ([ibenik archipelago), the outcome of research carried out in the period 2000 to 2004. These new taxa refer mainly to indigenous and naturalised (133 taxa) and less to cultivated plants (27 taxa). Together with the 270 taxa that have been published previously this makes a total of 430 taxa of vascular flora recorded for the island of Krapanj so far. The great richness of the flora of this small island (0,36 km2) is explicable by the proximity of the mainland and diversity of habitats as well as the good population density.
