[2] The specific epithet is named after Christopher Maitland Stocken, who discovered it in 1962 in Bornos. [3] It is native to Spain, [2] where it is endemic to grasslands growing in calcareous soil on formations made from calcarenite (a type of limestone) [4] west of Cádiz in Andalusia. [1] It is currently listed as critically endangered. [1] In 1993, the number of individuals belonging to this species was estimated to be below 2000. [5]
Silene stockenii is a gynodioecious–gynomonoecious species. [6] In this species 7% of individuals are females, 53.5% are hermaphrodites, and 39.5% are intermediate. [5]
