some time ago. It isn't listed in any of my books. I looked it up in IPNI
and this is what I found. Do any of our European list members know anything
about it. Lauw, have you seen it? Does anyone grow it?

Amaryllidaceae Leucojum fabrei Quézel & Girerd
Bull. Soc. Bot. France, Lett. Bot. 137(1): 78. 1990

A) An efficient conservation planning of rare plants is often obliterate by
the lack of a
comprehensive integration of ecological, biological and demographic data. This
observation is particularly true if we consider the paucity of informations
concerning
threatened Mediterranean plants.
The aims of our study are to examine through two rare geophytes: (i)
microhabitats
differences among and within populations, (ii) their influences on demography
and on
reproductive success, and (iii) their importance in relation to clonal versus
sexual
reproduction.
Leucojum nicaeense Ardoino and Leucojum fabrei Quézel & Girerd are
respectively
endemic from the Maritimes Alps and the Mont Ventoux (south-east France).
These two
endemics exhibit contrasted patterns of rarity and threats: L. fabrei
comprises only 3
populations, whereas the about 20 known populations of L. nicaeense are
seriously
threatened by the tremendous urbanization and landscape fragmentation existing
on the Côte d’Azur. Floristic and environmental data indicate that the two

one. Demography of L. nicaeense seems to be influenced by the closed presence
of a
low ligneous stratum but L. fabrei shows no interference with regard to growth
forms.
Furthermore, reproductive success was positively correlated with population
density for

L. fabrei and with the total number individuals for L. nicaeense. Our results
indicate that
the importance of microhabitat-specific differences imply to consider the
effects of a local
scale variability. These data should allow to develop an adequate conservation
planning
in order to surmount the hugeness of the actual land-use changes
characterizing this
region.
