Abstract

This paper presents the distribution, conservation status and habitat type of two relict and endemic species from the territory of the Republic of N. Macedonia. The subpopulations of the Thymus oehmianus Ronniger & Soška and Viola kosaninii (Degen) Hayek have a very limited distribution in the northwestern and central parts of the country. The conservation status was determined according to the latest IUCN methodology. Accordingly, Th. oehmianus is provisionally estimated as Critically Endangered (CR) while V. kosaninii has the status of Vulnerable (VU).
