Introduction. – The genus Nepeta, one of the largest genera of the Lamiaceaefamily, belongs to the subfamily Nepetoideae and tribe Mentheae. It comprises ca. 300herbaceous perennial, rarely annual species most of which are spread out over thelarger part of central and southern Europe, the Near East, central and southern Asia,and some areas of Africa. The plants of this genus have beautiful flowers with apleasantodor;thepollengrainsarehexacolpate[1].Thegreatestdiversityandrichness
