Cephalaria anatolica

About

Cephalaria anatolica is a critically endangered species of herbaceous plant in the family Caprifoliaceae, endemic to eastern Anatolia in Turkey. This slender perennial herb grows up to 1 metre tall with branching stems that have fine, downward-pointing hairs on their lower portions. It features distinctively variable leaves that are either simple or deeply divided into feather-like segments, and produces egg-shaped flower heads with yellow petals from June to July. First described in 1970, the species is restricted to rocky slopes, stony ground, and roadsides at elevations between 900 and 1100 metres. Its limited distribution, covering less than 500 km2 across no more than five localities, has led to its classification as critically endangered according to IUCN criteria.
