Abstract
Four hybrid taxa, previously rarely, or now for the first time recorded in Croatia, observed during the spring of 2020 and 2022 on Mt. Papuk, are presented. A hybrid of Primula vulgaris Huds. and P. veris L. called P. × polyantha Mill. is known as an ornamental plant, which comes in a whole palette of colors, but the occurrence of spontaneous hybrids that occur in nature in Croatia has been discussed in print only once, by Degen in 1937. Ophrys × hybrida Pokorny ex Rchb. f. is a cross between O. sphegodes Mill.and O. insectifera L., and it has never previously been recorded in Croatia. Orchis × beyrichii (Rchb. f.) A. Kern. and O. × angusticruris Franch are rarely recorded hybrids in which O. simia Lam. participates, the first by crossing with the species O. militaris L., and the second with O. purpurea Huds.
