Almost a half of the established taxa belong to the Mediterranean flora] element. The remaining species, apart from the Mediterranean and Sub-Mediterranean area, have been dispersed through other parts of Europe. The taxa Anacamptis pyramidalis and Ophrys lutea subsp. minor are the most numerous in terms of population volume.
