Rezumat

Plantago maxima belongs to the genus Plantago, which comprises herbaceous species, rarely of woody consistency (P. sempervirens).
The plant analyzed in the present study represents a native and relict taxon that is present in several settlements in Romania: Turnişor, Şura Mică, Ocna Sibiului, Şesul Măcelarilor, Drechea (Sibiu County), and Coţofenii din Faţă (Dolj County).
The present paper brings important information about the chorology of this species in Romania. It was identified within the following villages: Cârcea, Lișteava, Radomir, and Poiana Mare from Dolj county. The number of individuals identified in the new settlements is comprised between four and twenty-two. Almost all specimens have reached the fruiting stage, which proves that the populations are characterized by viability and stability. The main causes that could trigger the reduction of the populations of this species are the decrease in the water regime and the influence of the zoo-anthropogenic factor.
