Özet

In the present study reveals the morphological, anatomical and ecological characteristic of Orchis spitzelii in Turkey. Plant materials of Orchis spitzelii were collected from 17 different population, between 20102013 in Turkey. Orchis spitzelii samples were analyzed for 19 morphological, 20 anatomical and 18 soil characters and habitat properties. As a result, the minimum length of plantwas 200 mm and maximum 500 mm, minimum length of underground part was 25 mm and maximum 94 mm. Number of leaves varied between 3-9. According to habitat definition, Orchis spitzelii grew up to 500 m to 2100 m. Also, Pinus nigra Re-revised received.forests and glades were most common habitat of Orchis spitzelii, found generally over calcareous soils.
