Festuca; F. sect. Eskia; North Macedonia; taxonomy; distributionAbstract
The genus Festuca is one of the largest genera in the family Poaceae. This article covers the basal group of narrow-leaved species of the genus, F. sect. Eskia, which is represented in Macedonia by several micro-species: F. adamovicii (St-Yves) Markgr.-Dannenb., F. bosniaca Kumm. & Sendtn., F. galicicae Horvat ex Markgr.-Dannenb., F. kozanensis Foggi & J. Müller, F. valida (Uechtr.) Penzes, and F. jakupicensis Kostadinovski. For each species, descriptions, as well as data on distribution and ecology, are provided.
