Herein this study, the endemic plants showing different distribution, found in small populations in different habitats (such as serpentine, gypsum bearing, calcareous etc.) and the concentration of the elements in the soil they grow were determined. It was investigated whether the soil content of elements of some endemic plant species unique to Erzincan have effects upon the spreading in limited habitats. Root and leaves of 7 endemic plants, Psephellus aucherianus, Ferulago glareosa, Silene dumanii, Silene nerimaniae, Tanacetum alyssifolium, Verbascum alyssifolium, Psephellus erzincani and soil samples from the area they grow up were collected. Elemental analysis in plants and soils were conducted in the laboratory with ICP-OES device after the preliminary treatment. Elements of the habitats and features of collected soil samples were revealed. In the study, the correlation between element concentration in the roots of collected plants and element concentration in the soil they grew was determined.
