List of endemic plants of Corsica
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Corsica is a large island in the Mediterranean Sea, and is home to dozens of endemic species and subspecies of plants.[1] Although it is politically part of France, the World Geographical Scheme for Recording Plant Distributions treats Corsica as distinct botanical country.[2]
