Only two of them Fritillaria meleagris and Fritilaria orientalis grow in Slovenia and both are rare, endangered and protected. The same is true for Fritilaria gracilis, which unfortunately doesn't appear in my country but south of it in west Balkan peninsula Dinaric mountains (Orjen, Velebit, Prokletije). Endemic to coastal mountains of Croatia, Bosnia, Montenegro and north Albania it appears nowhere else in the world. - Enlisted in the Croatian Red book of rare and endangered species, marked by 'VU' representing a sensitive species. - Ref.: (1) . ili, Endemine biljke (Endemic plants), Svjetlost, Sarajevo (1984) (in Serbo-Croatian), p164.
