Abstract

Stipa dasyphylla (Lindem.) Trautv. (Poaceae, Pooideae, Stipeae) is generally found from Central Asia (northwards to southern part of West Siberia), through European part of Russia to Central Europe (westwards to Switzerland and Germany). Hitherto, from Balkan Peninsula it was documented only from one locality in Greece. There were also some personal communications for its presence in Bulgaria, but they were never confirmed. In this paper, we reported its occurrence in one new locality in Western Serbia (Zlatibor Mt.) on ultramafic substrate. Morphological and anatomical characters of the specimen collected in Serbia are reported together with the phytosociological characteristics of the habitat. The threatened status of the species for Serbia is assessed on the basis of the IUCN criteria.
