Abstract
Riella macrocarpa was described as R. helicophylla var. macrocarpa by Allorge in 1929. Later, this variety has not been used further and has not been treated correctly in the checklists. The species was separated and raised to the species rank by Segarra-Moragues et al. in 2022. Riella macrocarpa is known mainly in the western part of the Mediterranean Basin. The only record from the eastern part is from Cyprus. In the Balkan Peninsula only Riella notarisii has been reported so far from Croatia and Greece. Riella macrocarpa was found in Albania (Narta area), which means an extension of the distribution of this species to the eastern Mediterranean region. Its occurrence details in the Narta area and some notes on habitats are presented in this paper.
