Periploca laevigata subsp. chevalieri for Sta. Lucia, Paronychia illecebroides for the Ilhéus
Rombo, Asparagus squarrosus and Erodium malacoides for Fogo, and Cocculus pendulus for

natural vegetation or conservation status are presented for nine endemic taxa, viz. Periploca
laevigata subsp. chevalieri, Sonchus daltonii, Tolpis farinulosa, Echium hypertropicum, E.
vulcanorum, Lobularia canariensis subsp. fruticosa, Polycarpaea gayi, Euphorbia tuckeyana
