“…Thanks to the institution of the Apennine Floristic Research Center in 2001, managed by the University of Camerino (UNICAM) and the PNGSL [34], the vascular flora of the Park has been critically studied and continuously updated [35]. Recently, 14 new taxa (species and subspecies) have been recorded for the protected area: Carex strigosa Huds., Ranunculus pedrottii Spinosi ex Dunkel [36], Anthyllis apennina F.Conti and Bartolucci, Taraxacum pudilii Štěpánek and Kirschner [37], Oxytropis ocrensis F.Conti and Bartolucci, Aubrieta deltoidea (L.) DC., Opuntia scheeri F.A.C.Weber, Trachelium caeruleum L. subsp. caeruleum [38], Anacamptis berica Doro [39], Astragalus austriacus Jacq., Festuca bosniaca Kumm.…”

The National Park of Gran Sasso and Monti della Laga (PNGSL) is located in Central Italy and covers an area of 143.311 ha across three administrative regions (Abruzzo, Marche, and Lazio). It is the protected area hosting the highest number of vascular plants in both Europe and the Mediterranean basin. The plan of the park recognizes the need to establish a list of plants of conservation interest to prioritize for protection. The aim of this study is to identify plants (vascular and bryophytes) for inclusion on a protection list, taking into account their phytogeographic importance as well as the threat of extinction, and subsequently propose an original categorization (protection classes) suggesting specific conservation actions and measures. We used original criteria to select plants of conservation interest among the 2678 plant taxa listed in the national park. We identified 564 vascular plant species and subspecies (including nine hybrids) and one bryophyte to be included in the proposed protection list. The case study of the PNGSL could be a model for other protected areas.

“…The initial checklist was obtained from the literature on the hitherto known flora of Sardinia [ 9 , 19 , 31 , 54 ] and neighbouring territories—mainly islands—whose endemic flora is partially shared with Sardinia (e.g., [ 143 , 144 , 145 , 146 , 147 ]) and integrated according to more recent specific publications, mainly focused on the taxonomic description, revision, and distribution of endemic taxa (e.g., [ 7 , 75 , 107 , 148 ]). Online databases such as Euro + Med Plantbase [ 149 ], Plants of the World Online [ 150 ] or the Italian FlorItaly [ 151 ], the Spanish ANTHOS [ 152 ] or the French Inventaire National du Patrimoine Naturel—INPN [ 153 ] were also consulted.…”

The vascular flora of Sardinia has been investigated for more than 250 years, with particular attention to the endemic component due to their phylogeographic and conservation interest. However, continuous changes in the floristic composition through natural processes, anthropogenic drivers or modified taxonomical attributions require constant updating. We checked all available literature, web sources, field, and unpublished data from the authors and acknowledged external experts to compile an updated checklist of vascular plants endemic to Sardinia. Life and chorological forms as well as the conservation status of the updated taxa list were reported. Sardinia hosts 341 taxa (15% of the total native flora) endemic to the Tyrrhenian Islands and other limited continental territories; 195 of these (8% of the total native flora) are exclusive to Sardinia. Asteraceae (50 taxa) and Plumbaginaceae (42 taxa) are the most representative families, while the most frequent life forms are hemicryptophytes (118 taxa) and chamaephytes (106 taxa). The global conservation status, available for 201 taxa, indicates that most endemics are under the ‘Critically Endangered’ (25 taxa), ‘Endangered’ (31 taxa), or ‘Least Concern’ (90 taxa) IUCN categories. This research provides an updated basis for future biosystematics, taxonomic, biogeographical, and ecological studies and in supporting more integrated and efficient policy tools.

In Italy, the National Recovery and Resilience Plan (NRRP) foresees the planting of ca. 6.6 million trees to establish urban and peri-urban forests in 14 metropolitan cities. This ambitious project requires a significant number of native trees and shrubs, currently unavailable in Italian public and private nurseries. This survey analyzes the state of forest nurseries in two administrative regions of southern Italy, i.e. the “Filici” forest nursery (province of Agrigento, Sicily) and the Gargano Mountain Reclamation Consortium (province of Foggia, Apulia), to evaluate the adequacy of Sicilian and Apulian forest nurseries as potential sources of plant material to meet the requirements of the NRRP. The census carried out at the “Filici” nursery revealed the presence of more than 22,000 seedlings in cultivation, comprising 55 species, 26 genera, and 26 families. The autochthonous species are 43 (78.2%), while the exotic ones are 12 (21.8%). The Gargano Mountain Reclamation Consortium forest nursery has 190,876 seedlings in cultivation. A total of 80 species are present, belonging to 59 genera and 32 families. Of these, 68 (85%) are native species, 12 (15%) are exotic. An analysis of the plant material being cultivated in these forest nurseries shows the presence of a share of autochthonous species of interest for urban reforestation initiatives, however these are still insufficient in number.
