Ranunculaceae
notes Slo.: julijska orlica - Habitat: Stony alpine grassland, south oriented mountain slope near the main ridge of the Bohinj mountains, calcareous ground, full sun, average precipitations ~3.000 mm/year, average temperature 1 - 3 deg C, alpine phytogeographical region. - Substrate: soil among rocks and well settled coarse scree. - Comment: Plants were initially correctly determined as Aquilegia bertolonii. As such they were included into distribution maps of several fundamental botany works such as the Swiss work Aeschimann et all., Flora alpine, (2004). It was also included on the European list of Natura 2000 species (Ref.:2). However, resent research (including genetic-molecular analysis) proved that the plants considered as Aquilegia bertolonii growing in Slovenia differ from the plants growing in the dislocated region in north-west Italy in Apuan Alps where A. betrolonii has its locus classicus (Ref.: 1. and 3.) The new species name is Aquilegia iulia Nard. As such it is a new endemic plant growing exclusively in Slovenia. - Enlisted in the Slovene Red List of rare and endangered species, marked by 'R' representing a rare species. Included in Natura 2000 list of protected species. - Ref.: (1) Nardi, E., 2011: Diagnoses aquilegiarum novarum in Europa crescentium. Webbia (Firenze) 66 (2): 231–232.
