Hill-sides, dry and rocky places. Prodromo (UK!). To this species very probably belongs a 

 plant, which was collected by me at Prodromo, but is too little developed to be quite surely determined 

 (JH 917). Kyrenia (SR 529!). — Already collected by Sibthoep at Paphos [vidi in Herb. Mus. Palat. 

 Vindob. !].

 Ill, 60 et Suppl. 282; Kotschy, Cypern, 259; Sint. et Rigo, Iter cypr. No. 524! 



Very probably endemical in Cyprus. Raulin (Crete, II, 773) has indicated this species for the 

 island of Crete, but as it is said by him there to be subalpine, most likely a confusion has taken place. 



Frequent in maquis, tracheotis and elsewhere in dry rocky localities in lower regions. Kophino 

 (JH 570), Yalia (JH 794).
