Callitriche pulchra

Callitriche pulchra,[2] the beautiful water starwort, is a plant that was listed on the 2012 IUCN Red List of Threatened Species,[1] based on specimens gathered on Gavdos island, Crete by H. D. Schotsman. Additionally, two of Pamapani's specimens were identified at Le Due Palme.[3] Schotsman thereafter classified in 1968 in three different ponds located in Cyrenaica.[4] In 2015 Callitriche pulchra was detected in Cyprus, somewhat reducing its endangered status.[5] Other locations it has been encountered include Greece,[6] Libya[7] and Syria.[8]
