    Hello, I'm new here, i am a newbie student at Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, faculty of forestry and natural environment.
    I am working on an assignment and i have to ID some forest plants.

    Below i have the pictures uploaded and shared on my Google Drive, please tell me if you can ID them.

    Important even the family is enough (e.g. plant 27 = Poaceae)
    Thank you!

    EDIT: I removed the plants i found for sure (because the list was too long) the rest i don't feel safe to say for sure.


    plant 4 Fabaceae ???
    plant 5 Campanulaceae ???
    plant 7
    plant 8 Rosaceae (not very sure)
    plant 10 I think Lamiaceae
    plant 15
    plant 16
    plant 18
    plant 20
    plant 21
    plant 23 I think Lamiaceae
    plant 26

    When I first saw this post, I thought "No way", but after looking at several it was sort of fun to try to identify families of flattened plant silhouettes from Greece. I know there will be other opinions about the families, but that is my .02.

    You are correct on 14. That is what I had. Don't know why I put down what I did.

    Hardly, there is no place for inferior ovary, the flowers almost sessile.

    Yea, I thought about the inferior ovary also. Thought it might be squeezed in there.

    Removing / editing the post makes the thread have a lot less value for anyone else who wants to learn.

    I'll add to what Daniel said - if you found the list too long, it might help next time to read this posting first:
    Multiple Plants to Identify?
    where it's requested that you just include a few questions per posting. And also there's another posting at the top of the forum requesting that photos be uploaded rather than just having links. That makes it easier for people who are willing to help, and for people coming across the postings on a query. Thanks.
