Abstract

An intense exploration of the Spanish Cantabrian coast for the presence or absence of wild Brassica oleracea L., yielded 24 new localities to be added to the 21 previously known. Of the resulting 45 localities, 22 correspond to Asturias, 11 to Cantabria and 12 to the Basque Country. Data on the habitat requirements of this plant have been annotated, the conservation status of each population has been estimated and seed samples have been collected for long-term preservation. As a whole, wild B. oleracea is not threatened in Northern Spain, but some populations and/or sub-populations are at risk either because of their small size or some detectable human impact.
