Abstract
Karousou, R. & Kokkini, S.: Distribution and clinal variation of Salvia fruticosa Mill. (Labiatae) on the island of Crete (Greece). — Willdenowia 27: 113–120. 1997. — ISSN 0511-9618. The distribution of the aromatic species Salvia fruticosa on the island of Crete (S Greece) is presented in a grid map. Discriminant analyses of the variation in morphological features and essential oil content of 34 S. fruticosa populations from all over the distributional range on the island reveal that both the morphological and chemical variation form a W-E directed cline.Keywords
