-From the introduction: This checklist has been compiled using FloraEuropaea as a basis, but giving a reference to the serial number of thespecies in the work of Willkomm & Lange. The taxonomy is that of FloraEuropaea except where generic revisions have been published later thanthe Flora Europaea account, and an effort has been made to take note ofall such work published down to the end of 1980. Every serial number inWillkomm & Lange, and in Willkomm's Supplementum, has been accountedfor, but where the species concerned is now known to be absent fromSpain, or present only in cultivation, it is placed in square bracketsto indicate that it is not part of the native or naturalized flora ofSpain... The families in this Spanish checklist are those set out in Med-Checklist Document n. 6 (March 1979), and the order is alphabeticalthroughout, i.e. within each of the four major groups (Pteridophyta,Gymnospermae, Dicotyledones, Monocotyledones) the families are inalphabetical order, with genera in alphabetical order in each family,and species in each genus. - Treatment of hybrids: As a rule these areincluded only if they have a separate serial number in Willk. & Lange orin Flora Europaea. - Geographical information: There are four maincategories of plants in Spain: 1. Iberian endemics, 2. Plants that arenot found elsewhere in Europe but occur in N Africa, 3. Plants that arerestricted to the area covered by Flora Europaea and Med.-Checklist, 4.Plants that are more widespread, extending into Asia or Africa, or arecosmopolitan. In this checklist the first two categories aredistinguished by symbols; categories 3 and 4 are distinguished by theuse of "etc.", which implies category 4. The distribution within Spainis only indicated in general terms by abbreviations (N,S,etc.), which refer to parts of Spain indicated on map n. 2, the boundaries of thesesubdivisions being the same as were used in Flora Europaea.
