Abstract :Teucrium leucophyllum Montbret & Aucher ex Bentham (Lamiaceae) was first collected in 1834 in Upper Euphrates by Montbret and Aucher. It is endemic and only known from this locality. In spite of investigations, it has not been recollected and thus has been evaluated as Extinct. This paper reports the re-discovery of Teucrium leucophyllum Montbret & Aucher ex Bentham (Lamiaceae) which was listed as Extinct (EX) according to the World Conservation Union Red List Categories. This study also provides the re-descriptions of this taxon, and presents field observations. In addition, new IUCN category is suggested for it.Keywords : Erzincan, Lamiaceae, Teucrium leucophyllum, Türkiye
