Abstract
Poa remota, previously known in Hungary only from the northern part of the Hungarian Middle Range, was found in the Bakony Mountains, the southern part of the mountain range. The species was recorded at three localities in the central part of the „Öreg-Bakony” geographic unit, in the valley system of the „Fekete-séd” stream. Similar to other Central European observations, the species thrives in spring marsh habitats and alder swamp forests around the springs. Poa remota may be a relict species of a colder climate period in the Bakony Mts. Its occurrence is also important from a phytogeographical point of view, as this record slightly expands the local distribution limit southwards.
