First Record of Crataegus Azarolus Var. Aronia L. (Rosaceae) in Libya

ABSTRACT: Crataegus azarolus var. aronia L. (Rosaceae) is a native taxon of the Mediterranean basin, and this is the first time it has been found in Libyan territory. It grew in a silty habitat alongside other mesophyte plants about 40 km east of Almarj city. The records date from December 2017 to March 2018. Collecting this taxon from this area in east Libya, expands the known geographical distribution of Crataegus azarolus var. aronia and underscores the importance of continued botanical exploration across all regions.
