Kozjak and the Pohorje mountains. Three communities of the order Androsacetalia vandellii (Asplenietea trichomanis) were recognized: Campanulo cochleariifoliae-Primuletum villosae ass. nova (Androsacion vandellii ), Woodsio ilvensis-Asplenietum septentrionalis (Asplenion septentrionalis) and Hypno-Polypodietum (Hypno-Polypodion vulgaris). The communities are distinguished by altitude, light intensity, temperature and the number of endemic species, south-European orophytes or cosmopolite species. Altitude is a signifi cant factor aff ecting the fl oristic composition of the studied vegetation. Keywords: chasmophytic

  • Balkan Vegetation
    Plant Formations in the Balkan BioProvince Peter Martin Rhind Balkan Mixed Deciduous Forest These forests vary enormously but usually include a variety of oak species such as Quercus cerris, Q. frainetto, Q. robur and Q. sessiliflora, and other broadleaved species like Acer campestris, Carpinus betulus, Castanea sative, Juglans regia, Ostrya carpinifolia and Tilia tomentosa. Balkan Montane Forest Above about 1000 m beech Fagus sylvatica forests often predominate, but beyond 1500 m up to about 1800 m various conifer communities form the main forest types. However, in some cases conifer and beech communities merge and both reach the tree line. The most important associates of beech include Acer platanoides, Betula verrucosa, Corylus colurna, Picea abies, Pyrus aucuparia and Ulmus scabra, while the shrub layer often consists of Alnus viridis, Euonymous latifolius, Pinus montana and Ruscus hypoglossum. The ground layer is not usually well developed and many of the herbaceous species are of central European distribution including Arabis turrita, Asperula muscosa, Cardamine bulbifera, Limodorum abortivum, Orthilia seconda and Saxifraga rotundifolia. Of the conifer forests, Pinus nigra (black pine) often forms the dominant species particularly in Bulgaria, Serbia and in the Rhodope massif. Associated trees may include Taxus buccata and the endemic Abies bovisii-regis (Macedonian fir), while the shrub layer typically includes Daphne blagayana, Erica carnea and the endemic Bruckenthalia spiculifolia (Ericaceae). In some areas there is a conifer forest above the black pine zone from about 1300 m to 2400 m in which the endemic Pinus heldreichii (Bosnian pine) predominates. It is often rather open possibly as a consequence of repeated fires.

  • WHAT IMAGES of OXEN CAN TELL US Metaphorical Meanings and Everyday Working Practices
    WHAT IMAGES OF OXEN CAN TELL US Metaphorical meanings and everyday working practices Inja Smerdel Introduction Although it seems that researchers from the humanities interested in working animals pay far more attention to the horse than the ox,1 there are individuals who have made some important observations about the significance of oxen in human history. For example, in her recent contribution on harnessing oxen using two basic forms of yoke,2 Cozette Griffin-Kremer (2007: 66) describes these draught animals which, from the time when they were first domesticated and worked until they disappeared from farms as a result of mechanisation, have used their harnessed energy and strength to pull tree trunks and rocks, as well as powering various tools, equipment and transport devices – from ards, ploughs, carts and sledges to threshing machines and mills – as "a wonderful machine that transformed the surface of the earth". In his book Horses, Oxen and Technological Innovation John Langdon (1986: 8) writes that, apart from mules and donkeys, "oxen carried all the burden for ploughing and hauling in ancient times". Rolf Minhorst (1990: 37), the author of a detailed historical study of draught animals in Germany,3 observes that "the draught ox had revolutionised the agriculture of the Neolithic period" and that "cattle husbandry in Europe has determined our cultural development from the very beginning". Quite a number of fundamental cultural values have also been identified in relation to attitudes to domesticated animals on other continents. Relevant anthropological studies have identified syntagms such as the African "cattle complex" (Campbell 2005: 97; cf.

Our circular ride from the Town Hall to the Ljubljana Castle and from there along the pleasant banks of the Ljubljanica River to the Špica embankment, the Trnovski pristan embankment and through the Krakovo area back to the city centre, first through the centre of the modern and then the Art Nouveau Ljubljana and past the Prešernov trg square and over the Triple Bridge to our starting point will last one hour and 15 minutes to one hour and a half, depending on the traffic. During that time, parts of the rich history of Ljubljana will be revealed to us. Each stop offers an opportunity to get off, explore the vicinity and catch the next ride. The departures are every two hours from outside the Town Hall – check the exact hours at the stops. Ljubljana They say that Ljubljana is Europe in miniature as it is situated at the dynamic crossroads of the Germanic, Roman and Slavic worlds. It connects the prehistory of pile-dwellers with the 2000-year-old Roman Emona, the medieval centre below the castle hill with rich Baroque façades, the beauties of Art Nouveau with the creations of Jože Plečnik, significant architect and urbanist of Europe.

    HIKING IN SLOVENIA Green. Active. Healthy. www.slovenia.info #ifeelsLOVEnia www.hiking-biking-slovenia.com |1 THE LOVE OF WALKING AT YOUR FINGERTIPS The green heart of Europe is home to active peop- le. Slovenia is a story of love, a love of being active in nature, which is almost second nature to Slovenians. In every large town or village, you can enjoy a view of green hills or Alpine peaks, and almost every Slove- nian loves to put on their hiking boots and yell out a hurrah in the embrace of the mountains. Thenew guidebook will show you the most beauti- ful hiking trails around Slovenia and tips on how to prepare for hiking, what to experience and taste, where to spend the night, and how to treat yourself after a long day of hiking. Save the dates of the biggest hiking celebrations in Slovenia – the Slovenia Hiking Festivals. Indeed, Slovenians walk always and everywhere. We are proud to celebrate 120 years of the Alpine Associati- on of Slovenia, the biggest volunteer organisation in Slovenia, responsible for maintaining mountain trails. Themountaineering culture and excitement about the beauty of Slovenia’s nature connects all generations, all Slovenian tourist farms and wine cellars. Experience this joy and connection between people in motion. This is the beginning of themighty Alpine mountain chain, where the mysterious Dinaric Alps reach their heights, and where karst caves dominate the subterranean world. There arerolling, wine-pro- ducing hills wherever you look, the Pannonian Plain spreads out like a carpet, and one can always sense the aroma of the salty Adriatic Sea.

Podatke o številu in strukturi zaposlenih v mestih, o njihovih osebnih dohodkih in o ustvarjenem družbenem proizvodu in narodnem dohodku v mestih SR Slovenije je zbral Zavod za statistiko v Ljubljani. Inštitut za ekonom- ske raziskave v Ljubljani je zbiranje nekaterih zgoraj naštetih podatkov posebej finančno podprl. Prvotna razprava je bila pred predajo v tisk, januarja 1973, dopol- njena in delno predelana. Predvsem so upoštevani predhodni rezultati popisa prebivalstva iz 1. 1971 glede urbanizacije, velikosti mest in mest- nega prebivalstva, medtem ko so podatki o zaposlenih, družbenem pro- izvodu, narodnem dohodku in osebnih dohodkih zaposlenih ostali ne- spremenjeni in veljajo za leto 1966.
