摘要：In Croatia, Cypripedium calceolus L. is an orchid species that is endangered and strictly protected . Most of the findings in Croatia have been made in Mt. Velebit and the Lika region: however, most of the recorded findings are very old, and have not been confirmed in recent times. This paper presents a detailed analysis of all published records of this species in Croatia. Additionally, one new locality of the species was found near Delnice in summer 2019, the second finding of the species in Gorski Kotar, where it was recorded and collected as long as 126 years ago. This is an important finding that confirms the existence of this extremely rare species in Gorski Kotar and Croatia.
