Abstract

This is the second paper in a series devoted to rare or threatened flora in Catalonia. The 114 specific or subspecific non-endemic taxa in our list are assessed with regard to their conservation status according to IUCN (1994) criteria. 12 of them are considered to be extinct in Catalonia (RE), 4 critically endangered (CR), 11 endangered (EN), 66 vulnerable (VU) and 21 data deficient (DD). The high risk categories are dominated by plants of low altitude wetlands (freshwater, marshes), much recent in as decades. Unfortunately, in the case of the endemics, only a small number of the plants in the catalogue enjoy legal protection.
