Trifolium latinum is an annual species of clover,[1] native to south-east Europe and west Turkey.[2]
Description
Trifolium latinum has lanceolate leaves[3] and flowers in May-June. Its seeds are long lasting in the environment, meaning after destruction of the population in an area, it is able to recolonize.[4]
Distribution
Trifolium latinum is found in the temperate regions of south east Europe and West Turkey near the Mediterranean sea.[2] In Italy, it was thought to be extinct until it was rediscovered in 2012.[5] Since its rediscovery, its range in Italy is confined to 50m of coppice of Quercus frainetto and Q. cerris.[4]
