Abstract
Data on the flora and vegetation of seven offshore islets of
Kithira Island (Prasonisi, Megali Dragonera, Antidragonera, Kapelo,
Avgo, Megalo Strongilo and Lidia) are presented. 145 vascular plant
taxa (species and subspecies) are reported, of which all but three
are new records for these islets. The observed vegetation units and
habitat types are briefly described and the ecological value and
biogeographical importance of the area are identified for
conservation purposes and discussed.
