Özet
Saponaria syriaca Boiss. was described in 1849 from type specimens but not collected again until 2006, when we found it in Derebahçe near Hatay-Belen, Turkey. The population of S. syriaca is quite small at that limited location and is vulnerable to human impacts. Therefore, suitable conservation strategies should be developed in order to preserve the species as soon as possible. Here, we discuss its history, morphology, habitat and ecology. Its current conservation status was re-evaluated with respect to last IUCN criterions. Discussions with closely related species are given. © 2017 Biharean Biologist, Oradea, Romania.
