Genus Lilium - endemic and endangered species of Croatian flora

Endemi daju specifična obilježja vegetaciji i odraz su veoma različitih klimatskih i edafskih uvjeta. Isto tako su interesantni za istraživanja jer ih suvremeni čovjek ugrožava te je potrebno zaštititi njihova staništa radi očuvanja bioraznolikosti. Crvena knjiga biljnih vrsta Hrvatske, koja sadrži popis i rasprostranjenost svojti koje je potrebno očuvati, dobar je alat u zaštiti biološke raznolikosti. Ugroženost biljnih vrsta povezana je s gubitkom staništa. Stoga su biljne vrste kojima prijeti izumiranje i koje su endemi zaštićene Zakonom o zaštiti prirode.Endems give specific vegetation characteristics and reflect the very different climate and edacial conditions. They are also interesting for research because they are threatened by a modern man and need to protect their habitats to preserve biodiversity. The Red List of Plant Species of Croatia, which contains the list and distribution of taxa that need to be preserved, is a good tool for protecting biodiversity. The endangerment of plant species is associated with the loss of habitats. Hence, plant species threatened with extinction and which endemic species are protected by the Nature Protection Act
