Abstract

Thorns, prickles and spines are sharp appendices of different origins whose presence in the Mediterranean floras has an ecological, evolutionary and biological meaning. Nevertheless, little information is available on the number and on the characteristics of the spinescent plants at local and regional scale. The aims of our research were: i) to create a check-list of spiny, thorny and prickly plants belonging to the wild flora of Italy and ii) to characterize this group basing on different morphological traits and ecological features.
