Annotation: Until recently there was not any indication of Scolymus maculatus for the Ionian Islands except the old record for Zakynthos (Sibthorp & Smith 1813: 147). It was not accepted in »Vascular Plants of Greece« (Dimopoulos & al. 2013: 64) nor in the »Atlas of the Hellenic Flora« (Strid 2024a: map 1221). In 2024 the species was rediscovered on Zakynthos after two centuries (pers. comm. J. Crummay). [2024-06-27]
