The 6th Balkan Botanical Congress, a prominent and renowned scientific gathering, aims once again to bring together botanists involved in research of plant life of the Balkan Peninsula 5 with emphasis on the conservation of biodiversity of this extremely rich flora and vegetation. The purpose of the Congress is also to provide an excellent opportunity to hear the latest results, to share research experiences and to develop new and strengthen the existing contacts between colleagues from different countries. The program of the Congress includes four lecture days that will allow plenary, oral and poster presentations, social events, mid-congress excursions and a post-congress field trip. The Book of Abstracts comprises over 200 presentations by more than 500 scientists, covering the areas of plant anatomy and morphology, taxonomy, floristics, alien and invasive plants researches, phylogeography and phylogeny, conservation issues, vegetation and ecology, traditional uses of plants and ethnobatanical studies, historical and archaebotanical researches and other botanical disciplines, all contributing to better understanding of beautiful, vibrant, rich and mysterious plant life of the Balkans. We wish you all a successful congress work, fruitful discussions and a pleasant stay in Rijeka.
