Additionally 38 belong in the area of Crete and Karpathos, and cannot be found anywhere else in the planet. Even if the Cretan flora it is considered to be one of the most studied areas of the Mediterranean, it is certain that it holds surprises to the new researchers. The difficult to explore mountainous areas, and gorges, that still remain unexplored, will transform the information that we already have, regarding the number of the herbs in the island.
The riches of the Cretan flora can become more perceptible when considering the fact that in a area of 8306 km that represents approximately the 6% of the total Greek land, 28% of the total know herbs can be found in Crete. This is due to its geographical position, the geological history, and the variety of the island habitat. Some of the endemic Cretan plants are dictamnus, the ebenous and Zelkova abelicea.
