Secale anatolicum is a species of flowering plant in the grass family Poaceae. It is native to southwestern Bulgaria, southern Greece, Turkey, the Transcaucasus, Iraq, and Iran.[2] A perennial, it is found in a variety of subtropical habitats, including mountain slopes, cliffs, grasslands, scrublands, and forests at elevations from 700 to 2,300 m (2,300 to 7,500 ft).[1] It has been assessed as Least Concern.[1] Although there is taxonomic uncertainty about species delimitations within the genus Secale, this taxon is considered a crop wild relative of rye (Secale cereale).[1][3]
