Introduction

In 1958, Mrs. ::\Iirj a Siljamäki, ~I. Sc . , and her busband Mr. Mikko Silja­ mäki, Lic.Med., found a strange !arge species of ] uncus growing in brackish sea wat er 30 cm deep at Pyhtää, Svartbäcksfjärden, on the Gulf of Finland. Some years later they ga,·e me a specimen of this plant. Although very yonng, this specimen was so interesting that I made a short trip to Pyhtää with Dr. Annikki Saarisalo-Taubert to see the plant in nature. Because the weatber was st ormy, we could not row to the original local ity, but examination the sbores of Svartbäcksfj ärden showed that the same ] uncus was very common tbere. After a thorough examination it became clear that this plant comes so close to J uncus articulatus that it may be regarded as a seashore race of this species. In addition t o this undescribed type, another race of J uncus articu­ latus, var. lindhardii, formely unknown from Finland, was detected during herbarium studies. A number of specimens of the hybrid]. alpinus X ]. arti­ culatus, which bad formerly been doubted to be present in Finland, were fonnd in the Finnish herbaria. It appears that there are a great many other t axonomic problems to be solved among the North European Junci, par­ ticularly in the ]. alpinus complex. 4 Leena Hämet-Ahti: Some races of Juncus articulatus L . in Finland

]uncus articulatus L . var. hy landri1 H ämet-Ahti, var. nova

Type: Finland, Nylandia, Pyhtää, Purola, Svartbäcksviken, gravelly seashore, 23 .IX.1965, Annikki Saarisalo-Taubert & Leena Hämet-Ahti (H, holotype; C, TUR, UPS, isot ypes). Rhizoma sat robustum, usque ad 5 = crassum, sat Ionge repens, haud caespitosum. Caules rigide erecti, firmi, c. (30-) 50-100 cm alti, infra inflorescentias 1-2 = crassi, obscure virides, inflorescentüs vaginisque saepe purpurascentes. Folia caulina 2-3 ( 4), rigida, Yulgo erecta, fere teretia, clistincte articulata; vaginae foliorum marginibus scariosis vulgo angustis, interdum >alde inconspicuis, in auriculas obtusas, diametro caulis breviores elongatis institutae. Inflorescentia an gusta longaque, r amulis longioribus erecto-patentibus sed pedunculis saepe m agis divergentibus; capitula numerosa (25-JO), floribus paucis (3-5). Perianthium t epalis subaequalibus, acutis, 2-2.5 (3) = longis, internis interdum apice rotundatis paulo brevioribusque et marginibus latioribus scariosis; filamenta antheris vulgo paulo longiora. Capsula perianthi paulo longior, atrorufa vel nigrescens et lucida, anguste ovata, acuminata, mucrone 0.3 = longo.

The rhizome (Fig. 4) is fairly stout (up t o 5 = in cliameter) and the plant is rather long-creeping, not tufted . The culms are rigidly erect, hard, about (30-) 50-100 cm tall and 1-2 = in diameter below the inflorescence. The colour when fresh is dark bluish-green , but the dried specimens are bluish-grey to bro·wn.ish-green, and often tinged with purple in the sheaths, culms and inflorescences.

1 Etymology: T he name is given in honour of Dr. Kils Hylander, who has tentatively r ecognized this variety in his flora. LövE (1961) described the genus H ylandra based on the same n am e and therefore I use the spelling hylandri instead of hyla~1deri. The form hylandri was used by WIKEN {1951, p. 55, footnote) as an example o f declension. ACTA BOTANICA FENNICA 72 5

The 2-3 (4) cauline leaves are stiif, usually straight and almost unflattened, and the articulation is very clear. The auricles of the sheaths are obtuse and shorter than the diameter of the culm. The scarious margins of the sheaths are usually narrow and some­ times very inconspicuous. The inflorescence is long and narrow, the Ionger branches ascending almost vertically or ouly at narrow angles (less than 30°) . However, some of the peduncles of the heads may diverge at fairly wide angles. The heads are numerous (25-70), each with few (3-5) flowers. The perianth segments are about equal and acute, though some of the inner ones may be somewhat rounded at the apex and slightly shorter. Also the scarious margin is narrow in the outer segments and rather broad in the inner ones. The length of the perianth is about 2- 2.5 (-3) mm. The filaments are usually slightly Ionger than the anthers. The capsule is slightly Ionger than the perianth, yery dark brown to black and shiny when ripe, acum.inate (F.ig. 1) and usually without, or with indistinct, shoulders. The beak is up to 0.3 mm long. The chromosome nurober is 2n = 80 (specimen from the type locality; H).

at least one of them (no. XII. 72; H) is obviously var. hylandri. I have not seen no. XI. 68, the original collection, which was determined as ]. anceps var. atricapillus by BuCHENAU (1890, p. 374). As far I know, this var. sub­ atratus has never been described. BuCHENAU (1906, p. 219) induded the specimen no. XII. 72 in >>]. lampocarpus var. nigritellus (D . Don) Macreight.>>. Obviously the records of this latter variety for Scandinavia, commonly given in Central European papers, are based on this specirnen in the >>Herbarium normale>>; the range of var. nigr-itellus does not extend as far as this. Although some Russian collectors (e.g. Ledebour, Ruprecht, Kühlewein), according to their labels in LE, have observed this race, none of them has described it. HYLA>.'>large 80>>, which has the same chromosome number (2n=80) as J. articulatus but which morphologically is a mixture of the characters of ] . acutijlorus (2n=40) and J. artiwla.tus; just as var. hylandri has characters of ]. articula.tus and ]. a.lpinus. O~viously the >>large 80>>, which according to CLAPHAM et al. (1962), may be best regarded as a distinct species, and var. hylandri are to some extent parallel cases within the variable and taxonomically still incompletely understood ]. articula.tus complex. ACTA BOTANICA FENNICA ?2 9

TIMM & CLAPHAM (1940) also discussed the possibility of the >> large 80 >> being the same race that has been described from Finland as var. cuspidatus Brenn. (BRENNER 1888, 1889, BuCHENAU 1890, 1906) . I have checked all the specimens in H determined by Brenner hirnself as var. cuspidatus and it is definitely not the same as var. hylandri or the >> large 80>>, but seems to re­ present a race of ]. articulatus that is very common in Finland. The taxo­ nomic status of var. cuspidatus needs further study, together with some other widespread races of J articulatus. 1 In this paper it is included in var. articulatus. According to the material available to me, Juncus articulatus var. hylandri seems to occur chiefly along the shores of the Baltic from Uppland to Kalmar Strait in Sweden and from Kvarken (Merenkurkku) in Finland at least to Estonia (Fig. 2). It may also be found down to the south coast of the Baltic, since GRAEBNER (1896) reported a tall, erect race of ]. articulaltts growing on the seashores in northern Poland. Some known localities far from seashores are obviously of anthropochorous origin (e.g. Finland: , Eskilom; U.S.S.R.: Leningrad Distr., Toksovo, Zelenogorsk and Zvanka Stations), since var. hylandri seems to be spreading along gravelly railway banks at least in some cases. Its occurrences on the shores of some lakes (e.g. Ringsjön) may also be of anthropochorous origin, but from these places some other seashore plants are known. ]. articulatus var. hylandri is obviously endemic around the Baltic like some other plants (Myosotis laxa Lehm. ssp. baltica (Sam.) Hyl., Deschampsia bottnica (Wahlenb.) Trin., etc.) but its area may be wider than shown by the present material. On the Aland Islands, according to a verbal communication from Mrs. Aune Haakana, confirmed by specimens she collected, var. hylandri occurs fairly commonly on Eheltered, gravelly and sandy seashores, growing often together with ]. gerardii and Agrostis stolonifera. It may be also found in sea water up to 30-40 cm deep (e.g. -ylandia, Pyhtää, according to a verbal commuuication from Mrs. 1:irja Siljamäki). Even in water the culm is never decumbent or stolouiferous. In several papers dealing with seashore vegetation around the northern Baltic there are records of ]. articulatus, which seems to be rather common

1 ] uncus arti c ~tlatu s Yar. aquaticus L. is one of the races of]. articulatus reported from Finland. According to HJELT (1892) there was no typical specimen from it in H, but as mf. aquaticus this plant was still mentioned by CAJAKDER {1906) and HIITONEN {1933) from Eastem Fennoscandia (Karelia olonetsensis). These records are based on a specimen in H collected from :(vina River, Ladva, Karelian A.S.S.R., which is a sterile Butomus umbellatus L. grown in fairly deep water {tvar. vallisnerifolia Sagorski•). MONTELL (1946) reported var. littoralis Buchenau for the Aland Xslands, however the specinlens (TURA) belong to var. articulatus. From the same area he described also ]. lampocarpus f. gracilis Montell (op. cit., s.n. var. tenuis in Herb. Montell, TURA!), which is a shade modification of var. articulatus. 10 Leena Hätnet-Ahti: Some races of Juncus articulatus L . iu Finland

FIG. 2. The distribution of ] tm cus articulatus L . var. hyla11dri H ä met-Ahti according to the s pecimens exa mined . on seashores iu some areas. Many of the e reports no doubt refer to var. hylandri although we must remernher that this ,·ariety is not the only race of J. articulatus that occurs along the seashores in this area; there are also var. lindhardii (see below) and var. artic ulatus. Judging from these papers, var. hylandri may be fairly common in Uppland (AUIQUIST 1929) , the Aland Islands (PALMGREN 1961) and the Kotka- Pernaja region (ULVTNE~ 1937, LEMBERG 1946, KuJALA & ULY1:NEX 1964), scattered in the southwestern archipelago of Finland (EKLUXD 1958) , and rare in the Barösund area (BRE1\TNER 1921) as weil as betiYeen usikaupunki and Pori (HÄYREX 1909, VAAHTORA..l'I"TA 1964); HÄYREX (1 902, 1914) and LUTHER (1961) did not men­ tion the species from the Tammisaari-Tvärminne area but L E ~IB E RG (1928) reported that it is scattered on the sandy shores between Lappvik and Ren- ACTA BOTANICA FEK1 ICA ?2 11 riksberg. In Gotland ]. articulatus is very common along the coast s (ENGLUND 1942), but hmY much of it belongs to var. hylandri is unknown to me. I haYe seen only one definite specimen from there. Also its occurrence on the east coast of the Baltic is unexplored. ]. articulatus is mentioned to be locally common in ]. gerardii meadows on the west coast of Estonia (e.g. SHliUDT 1965) and there a re a lso specimens from the island of Saaremaa (Ösel). Var. hylandri is evidently rather strictly a seashore plant, but in H , for instance, there are specimens from the s hores of the eutrophic, so-called Anabawa lakes (CEDERCREUTZ 1937) Dalkarbyträsk and Lemböteträsk on Aland, which are 1-3 kilometres from the sea. However, J.~TINEN (1950) did not report ]. articulatus from the lake s hores on the Aland Islands, and it also seems tobe absent from the lakes there as an aquatic plant (cf. CEDER­ CREUTZ 1947). The flon·ering period of var. hylandri is very late and its capsules ripen late in autumn (September t o October?), which means that m any o f the specimens in herbaria a re t oo young for a definite identification. It is certainly also neglected as weil, and so the distribution map published can only be of a preliminary nature. Also the seemingly intermediate forms between it and var. articulatus are still unexplained. From many localities near the coast I have seen ] . articulatus specim ens which have some characters of var. hylaudri, e.g. a firm erect culm, short, obtuse auricles, inflorescence nan ower than in var. articulatus, but n·ith fen·er heads and with more flowers in the heads than in var. hylandri, the capsule acuminate, etc. Plants with these features are not geuerally found in the interior of Finland. I hesitate to de­ termine such specimens as hybrids \Yithout further investigation, especially of their behaviour in cultivation, and studies of this kind have already been started in the Botanical Garden of the University of Helsinki. Possibly the land upheaval around the Baltic has caused var. articulatus and var. hylandri t o meet in some localities. Of course, they may also meet in anthropogenic habitat s.

Juncus articulatus L. var. lindhardii (Wiinst.) Wiinst.

vVIIXSTEDT in RAUXKJiER & \VIIXSTEDT 1942, p. 65. - j.lampocarpus var. Lind­ hardii \VnxSTEDT in RAUXKI)ER 1934, p. 65. - Lectotype: Denmark, Seeland, Kikhavn, 1929 Lindhard (C).

The plant is often fairly low growing, about 20-1•0 cm high, caespitose, decumbent to prostrate, rooting at the lower nodes and usually brauehing from some nodes in various parts of the culm (Fig. 5). The culm is hard, stout and up to 2.5 mm in diameter below the inflorescence. The 3- 4 cauline leayes are firm and curYed. The sheaths have fairly broad scarious margins and the auricles are Ionger thau the diameter of the culm and tapering. The inflorescence has rather short, thick branches with only a few heads (usually up to 10}. The heads are composed of about 5- 10 flowers. The bracts and perianthsarelight brown. The inner perianth segments haYe fairly narrow scarious margins. The perianth segments are as long as the capsule, or shorter. The capsule is comparatively short, dark brown, up to 2.5 mm (sometimes 3.0 mm) long, and broadly ovate with a short but conspicuous beak {Pig. 1).

I have examined the type specimen and also the other specimens m C determined as var. liudhardii by \Viinstedt himself. Thus I can state definitely that some specimens from southn·estern Finland belong to the same taxon. However, the type specimen has capsules which are very short when com­ pared with the perianth, and all the Finnish specimens have somewhat Ionger capsules, but several Danish specimens determined as var. lindhardii have exactly the same kind of capsules as the Finnish ones. This variety was first known only from Denmark, where it is fairly com­ mon in the dune areas (\VnxsTEDT 1937). HYLA.'mere mediterrau-atlantisk betoneb> (more Medi­ terranean-Atlautic) thau var. articulatus. I have seen J. articulatus specimens from Spain which resemble var. lindhardii very much but are not identical whit it; perhaps Wiinstedt referred to such specimens with the word )>medi­ terram>. Although a seashore plant, var. lindhardii is not restricted to such localities. It seems to occur in sandy, wet habitats both on sea and Iake shores, e.g. in the southwestern archipelago of Finland (Fig. 3) . It has been collected very little in this country; perhaps it is rare (or overlooked) and confined to the e21..'treme southwest. 14 Leena Hämet-A hti: Some races of J uncus articulatus L. in Finland

No intermediate forms between var. lindhardii and the other races of ]. articulatus have been seen by me in H. Perhaps the ecology of var. lind­ hardii differs so much from that of t!Je others, that they do not occur in the same localities. However, both var. litzdhardii and var. hylandri have been collected from Dalkarbyträsk, J omala, in the Aland Islands and this place could be an interesting one for the study of hybridization within ] . articulatus.

Juncus alpinus Vill. x articulatus L.

This hybrid, which was excellently described by MUREECK (1892), is very variable in appearance (Fig. 6, 7), since both of the parental species consist of several races. In the present description of the hybrid J. articulatus means only var. articulatus.

]. a!pinus X articu!atus is often rather tall (sometimes oyer 50 cm) and firm, but there are also short (20-30 cm) and fairly thin specimens. The rhizome is usually long and creeping. The culms are bright green, usuall y erect at the base and only rarely de­ cumbcnt.There are 2-4 fairly tllin, erect cauline lea\·es.The sheaths h ave very conspicuous scarious margins; the auricles may be long or short, and are usually quite obtuse. The inflorescence is very Yariable; it m ay be broad with a few, or several, clearly half­ globose heads, or Yery n arrow with a fe\Y long-branched and sparsely flowered heads, or n arrow with seYeral, sparsely flowered heads. The last-mentioned type of inflorescence resembles ]. articu!atus var. hy!andri yery much. The outer perianth segrnents are acumin ate, but the inner ones are often obtuse; both are light coloured. The capsule is hardly Ionger than the perianth, usually without seeds or sometimes witb a very fe\\· seeds or with poorly developed seeds.

In some cases it is possible t o determine the subspecies of ]. alpinus in­ volved in the hybrids. F or instance, ]. alpimts s~ p. nodulosus (Wahlenb.) Lindm. X articulatus L. seems to ha,·e narrow long-branched inflorescence with few long-pedicelled flmYers (Fig. 6) . The hybrids between ]. alpinus ssp. arthrophyllus (Brenn.) H yl. and ]. articulatus L. seem to be tall and their inflorescence resembles that of ssp. arthrophyllus (Fig. 7). However, the identi­ fication of the parental subspecies or Yariety in every hybrid will not be possible until the races of ]. alpinus in Finland and elsewhere are better known. ] uncus alpinus X articulatus is rather common in Sweden and Norway (MURBECK 1892, HYLAKDER 1953), and Denmark (WnxsTEDT 1937). From Finland it has been recorded only from Regio aboensis (ARRHENIUS 1893, CAJANDER 1906, HrrTO::-

to him, ] ALAS (1958), did not mention it from Finland. After my revision of the material in H and OULU it proved to have been collected in several places in the provinces Alandia, Regio aboensis, Nylandia, and Karelia borealis. There is also a specimen from the island Suursaari ( = Sur-sar; Hogland), U.S.S.R.

Summary

The taxonomy, distribution and ecology of the :c\orth Etuopean races of ]uncus articulatus L ., em. Lagerst. & Krok and the hybrid ]. alpim1s Vill. x articu/atus L. are discussed, with special reference to their occurrence in Finland. jttncus articulatus var. hylandri H ämet-Ahti, var. nova, is found along the seashores a round the Baltic, at least in Finland, Sweden, Leningrad District and Estonia. Its chromosome nurober is 2n=80. ]uncus articulatus var. lindhardii (\Viinst.) \Viinst. is an oceanic race reported for Den­ mark, Sweden, Norway and Finland. ]. alpitms x artiwlatus has been recorded from severallocalities in Finland.
