Notre dernier colloque se tenait il y a 10 ans à Paris en 1999, 10 ans c’est long, 10 ans c’est très loin. Il fallait que la SFO renoue avec cette traditionnelle organisation de colloques, manifestation qui a contribué à lui accorder la place prépondérante qu’elle occupe au sein des orchidophiles français et de la communauté scientifique. C’est chose faite aujourd’hui. Nombreux sont les thèmes qui font l’objet de communications par des intervenants dont les compétences dans le domaine de l’orchidologie ne sont plus à prouver.

Abstract: The Epipactis helleborine (L.) Crantz group is one of the most taxonomically challenging species complexes within the genus Epipactis. Because of the exceptionally high levels of morpho- logical variability and the ability to readily cross with other species, ninety different taxa at various taxonomic ranks have already been described within its nominative subspecies, but the taxonomic status of most of them is uncertain, widely disputed, and sometimes even irrelevant. The present review is based on results of the most recent research devoted to the E. helleborine group taxonomy. In addition, we analysed data about taxa belonging to this group presented in some research articles and monographs devoted directly to the genus Epipactis or to orchids in certain area(s). Based on the reviewed literature and data collected in four taxonomic databases Available Online, we propose an Citation: Łobas, Z.; Khapugin, A.; updated list of the 10 currently accepted taxa in the E.

Ireland were contacted in January 2003 and asked whether they would like to participate in the Working Group to produce a new Red List. The core Working Group, from the first meeting held in February 2003, consisted of botanists in Britain who had a good working knowledge of the British and Irish flora and could commit their time and effort towards the two-year project. Other botanists who had expressed an interest but who had limited time available were consulted on an appropriate basis.

  • Anglesey Rare Plant Register by Ian Bonner Introduction to the Summary Tables of Rare, Scarce & Extinct Taxa
    Extract from Introduction to the Anglesey Rare Plant Register by Ian Bonner Introduction to the Summary Tables of Rare, Scarce & Extinct taxa International Rarity comprises those taxa endemic to Britain, and those that are of such a limited distribution internationally that they are recognised by some international standard, such as the IUCN Red Lists, the EU Habitats Directive, or the Bern Convention. The Register follows Cheffings & Farrell, 2005, for endemic taxa and those for which Britain has an international responsibility. The National Rarity categories have been updated since the publication of the New Atlas of the British & Irish Flora (Preston, Pearman & Dines, 2002) through the Species Assessment Project of the Joint Nature Conservation Committee (JNCC) and now follow the IUCN categories set out below: EX - Extinct EW - Extinct in the wild CR - Critically Endangered a. > 80% decline b. 1 location and continuing decline c. < 250 individuals plus continuing decline d. < 50 individuals EN – Endangered a. > 50% decline b. 5 locations and continuing decline c. < 2500 individuals plus continuing decline d. < 250 individuals VU – Vulnerable a. > 30% decline b. 10 locations and continuing decline c. < 10,000 individuals plus continuing decline d1. < 1000 individuals d2. < 5 locations NT – Near Threatened a. >20% decline b. 30 locations plus continuing decline c. <10,000 individuals LC – Least Concern. No threat recognised. Note this equates to None in the Register. DD - Data Deficient (Species of Potential Conservation Concern) where a possible threat has been identified, but too little is known about the distribution or taxonomy to be certain. Reference is also made in the Summary Tables to a Waiting List, which is used by Cheffings & Farrell for taxa which have either inadequate distributional data, taxonomic uncertainties, or uncertainty over native, archaeophyte or neophyte status.

Stumpel Ch. van Swaay Alterra-report 1119 Alterra, Wageningen, 2005 ABSTRACT Ozinga, W.A. & Schaminée, J.H.J. (eds.). 2005. Target species – Species of European concern. A database driven selection of plant and animal species for the implementation of the Pan European Ecological Network. Wageningen, Alterra, Alterra-report 1119. 193 pages; 30 figs.; 18 tables; 134 refs. The concept of ecological networks is becoming increasingly important in both policies and practices of nature conservation throughout Europe. The establishment of the Pan Ecological European Network (PEEN) can be seen as one of the priority issues for nature conservation. For the establishment of such networks, it is essential to have adequate information on the threat status and distribution of plant and animal species throughout Europe. As there are thousands of plant and animal species, it is necessary to make a selection of species that are considered to be of specific conservation concern, so-called ‘target species’.
