Sažetak
Asmall population of flowering Iris pumila L. was discovered in April 2007 on the loess cliff near Zmajevac in Bansko brdo (Baranja, Croatia). This locality is on the south-westernmost border of the Pontic-Pannonian distribution area of the dwarf iris. The stand was described in a phytocoenological relevé. Based on recent knowledge of its distribution,
population measures, as well as causes of habitat threats, Iris pumila L. should be considered in Croatia an extremely rare and critically endangered taxon. The necessity of the protection of the loess cliffs is also emphasised.
