Abstract

This contribution presents the results of the floristic research carried out on Monte Perda ‘e Liana, one of the most characteristic Mesozoic calcareous formations of centre-eastern Sardinia. The found floristic component numbers 247 taxa that can be ascribed to 57 families and 176 genera. The endemic quota is made up of 44 species or 17.81% of the local flora mostly ascribed to the Sardinian sector. The analysis of the biological forms has pointed out a high percentage of hemicryptophytes and therophytes; while the chorological spectrum has shown the dominance of steno and euri Mediterranean elements.
