Aquilegia kozakii | |
Aquilegia kozakii is a perennial flowering plant in the family Ranunculaceae, endemic to Taiwan. [1]
The species was described in 1932 by the Japanese botanist Genkei Masamune, from a specimen collected on Taiping Mountain in Taiwan. As of 2008 [update] the location of the type specimen was unknown and further specimens of the plant were required for study as very little information is available about the species and its status. [2]
The specific epithet kozakii comes from the name of Mr. Kozaki, who collected the type specimen from which the species was described. [2]
Aquilegia kozakii is endemic to Taiping Mountain in northeastern Taiwan. [1]
As of May 2025 [update] , the species has not been assessed for the IUCN Red List. [3]
