Porto Cesareo is a town and comune in the Italian province of Lecce in the Apulia region of south-east Italy.

In 1971, Prof. P. Parenzan (from the Museum of Marine Biology) found Iris revoluta (a rare species of Iris) on the islet of Mojuso near Porto Cesareo in the gulf of Taranto, Southern Italy.[3]
