[EN] The extremely rare Aquilegia paui (Ranunculaceae)
was described in 1920 but was not found again until
1999, when it was discovered in the Parc Natural dels Ports
in Tarragona Province, Spain. This species had been
confused with the widespread A. vulgaris and consequently
its taxonomic and conservation status had been misinterpreted.
Based on the limited range of A. paui and the level
of disturbance of its habitat we recommend that it is
categorized as Endangered on the IUCN Red List. We
summarize the conservation actions available for such
extremely narrow endemic plant species and make appropriate
recommendations for the conservation of A. paui.
