Abstract As far as the author knows, the current study is the first attempt since those of Greuter et al. (1984-1989), and Greuter and von Raab-Straube (2008) to provide an up-to-date list of the Mediterranean endemics in Egypt. Furthermore, it sought to provide information about more recognizable boundaries of the Mediterranean floristic region in Egypt, and used the original map provided by Good (1974) to produce an updated spatial layer of the biogeographical regionalization of the Mediterranean area, thus facilitating future analysis in the region. Therefore, the present study aims at: 1- providing a new contribution to the delimitation of the Mediterranean biogeographic region in Egypt, 2- presenting an updated dynamic checklist of the Mediterranean endemic plants distributed along the Mediterranean coast of Egypt, 3- summarizing the main species traits such as habitats, flowering times, sex forms, dispersal types. |
