Critical revision of Lamiaceae family in Albanian flora

The territory of Albania includes a wide range of habitats and biodiversity. In
the 3rd published volume of “Flora of Albania” Lamiaceae family is recognized
as Labiatae family and includes 32 genera. The aim of this study is to bring an
update of data on one of the large families of “Flora of Albania”, Lamiaceae
family. First, this study refers to “Flora of Albania” volumes, as the only
complete publication for the Albanian flora. Most of the data for the critical
revision has been extracted from literature, such as the four volumes of “Flora
of Albania”, the five volumes of the “Flora Europaea”, the MedChecklist and
the Euro+Med Plantbase. Two genera: Acinos Miller and Calamintha Miller
did not exist so far, and now this two genera are part of Clinopodium L. genus.
From 276 taxa of this family only 143 remain unchanged like in the 3rd edition
of “Flora of Albania”, whereas 133 taxa are new for Albania (with changed
species/subspecies names or not even found in any of “Flora of Albania”
published volumes).
