Sažetak
On the Kornati archipelago, 303 plant species have been recorded so
far. Phytogeographical analysis of these plants showed that the highest number of the species belong to the Mediterranean floral element (60.47%), in which the circummediterranean predominates (34.80%). There are also Illyrian-Mediterranean (10.47%), but the Illyrian-Adriatic endemics (5.40%) are exceptionally interesting. South European floral element (17.91%) and wide-spread plants (11.15%) are also abundant. This geographical analysis shows that the Kornati Islands belong to the eumedi- terranean zone of the Mediterranean region.
An analysis of life forms indicates that the percentage of hemicryp- tophytes (32.88%) and therophytes (31.86%) is the same. The chamae- phytes account for 15.93%, phanerophytes 13.23% and geophytes 6.10%. The lower number of therophytes and the great share of hemicrypto- phytes. in comparison with the Middle Dalmatian islands of Vis (Domac 1955). Bisevo (Pavletic 1975) and Veli Drvenik (Bedalov 1985) can be explained by a marked anthropogenic influence — burning and pasture, which favours abundant development of hemicryptophytes.
