Mey. from the Lamiaceae family being a valuable essential oil plant. S. macrantha previously, single specimens were found in the Kyzylkaya and Negram-Dorosham mountains. 2018 we managed to identify the mountains of Darydag of Julfa district. In 2018, we managed to develop the Darydag, then 4 new locations in Mamadein, Keleki, Damir and Lalali mountain in the Ordubad district (1400–2800 m). Here Satureja grandiflora forms hitherto undescribed formations and associations covering vast rocky areas. S. laxiflora and S. mutica are newly identified species. It has been established that this species is a spinning, essential oil, medicinal and anti-erosion plant.
