RED DATA BOOK CATEGORY
Linum maritimum occurs in Central-East Europe and Mediterranean countries. In Cyprus it grows at three sites, all located within the Akrotiri peninsula, although other locations have been identified since the publication of the Red Book.
Its habitat is salt water and fresh water wetlands near sea level.
It is threatened by fire, drainage, invasive Acacia saligna and Phragmites australis and maintenance of forest roads and ditches.
