Abstract
The results of six seasons of personal field observations of species belonging to the family of Orchidaceae are compared with existing data in the Flora Croatica Database. Of 80 observed taxa, 20 were found within the borders of a sheet of the 1:100.000 topographical maps from which they were not yet logged in the FCD (“new” sheets). Among remarkable findings are those of Ophrys garganica and Ophrys lutea subsp. lutea which belong to the rarest orchid taxa in Croatia. Neotinea maculata was discovered in North Dalmatia and for the first time Orchis pauciflora could be logged in FCD for Velebit Nature Park. Likewise, Cephalanthera damasonium and Neotinea ustulata were newly included in the database for Pelješac Peninsula, while Anacamptis papilionacea was found for the first time on the island of Brač.
