50 to 100 m east of the chapel on top of Mt. Matajur; Julian Pre-Alps (Posočje, Slovenia)notes Slo.: Rhellicanova murka - syn.: Gymnadenia rhellicani (Teppner & Klein) Teppner, Nigritella nigra ssp. rhellicani (Teppner & Klein) Baumann, Kunkele & Lorenz - Habitat: mountain grassland, almost flat terrain; calcareous ground, full sun; elevation 1.625 m (5.330 feet); average precipitations ~ 3.000 mm/year, average temperature 1-3 deg C, pre-alpine phytogeographical region. Place: 50 to 100 m east of the chapel on top of Mt. Matajur; Julian Pre-Alps, Posočje, Slovenia EC. Comment: Nigritella rhellicani Teppner & Klein was separated from Nigritella nigra s.lat. only in 1991. In the Slovenian atlas Ref.3 (2000) most of our finds are still named as Nigritella nigra s.lat. At the time of publication Nigritella rhellicani was recognized only in two UTM squares. Similar situation applies for the Italian side of Julian Pre-Alps (Ref.4 -2002)). The stands on Mt. Matajur are not included in our atlas neither as Nigritella rhellicani nor as Nigritella nigra. Presently botanists claim that Nigritella nigra s.lat. consists of Nigritella nigra s.str., which grows only far north in Scandinavia and Nigritella rhellicani growing in our regions. Nigritella nigra s.str. is not included in Aeschimann et al, Flora Alpina (Ref.5.- 2004). However, Ref.1. (2005) (the best key I know) still states presence of Nigritella nigra (ssp. austriaca) (= Nigritella austriaca (Teppner & Klein) Delforge) for south Austria, which is next to the Julian Alps in Slovenia. Anyway, Nigritella rhellicani Teppner & Klein is marked in this reference as a critical species for determination. Protected according to: Uredba o zavarovanih prostoživečih rastlinskih vrstah, poglavje A, Uradni list RS, št. 46/2004 (Regulation of protected wild plants, chapter A, Official Gazette of Republic Slovenia, no. 46/2004), (2004). Pravilnik o uvrstitvi ogroženih rastlinskih in živalskih vrst v rdeči seznam, Uradni list RS, št. 82/2002 (Regulation of enlisting of endangered plant and animal species onto Red List, Official Gazette of Republic Slovenia, no. 82/2002) (2002). Enlisted in the Slovene Red List of rare and endangered species, marked by 'V' representing a vulnerable species. Ref.: (1) M.A. Fischer, W. Adler, K.
