Euphrasia’s hide-and-seek: periodicity of occurrence in some high-mountain spe- cies of () and its consequences for botanical research on protected areas

Ewa Posz

Keywords: Euphrasia, periodicity, protected areas, botanical research

Abstract The paper presents the results of long-term observations made on selected populations of two high-mountain Euphra- sia . The monitoring was conducted during 2002–2016 in ranges of the Polish parts of the Carpathians and Sudetes. Field studies revealed periodical occurrence and disappearance of populations in the localities for one or more seasons, which may be connected with the life cycle of annual . The phenomena of periodicity occurrence and dormancy and their consequences are discussed.

Introduction

The Euphrasia (eyebright) is represented by ca. 350 species worldwide (Fischer 2004). High-moun- tain eyebright species occur at altitudes up to 4 450 m a.s.l. in the Himalayas (Li 1953). In Europe, eyebright species have been found in almost all mountain ranges at altitudes as high as 2 700 m a.s.l. (in the Alps) (Yeo 1978). There are 11 species of eyebright in Poland (Posz 2014, 2016), three of which, E. minima Jacq., E. picta Wimm. and E. corcontica (Smejkal) Smejkal et are typical for siliceous bedrock. The range of E. salis- burgensis Funck is also limited to mountain areas, but it prefers calcareous bedrock. European eyebrights are small, semi-parasitic her- baceous annuals, which range in height from several centimetres to nearly twenty centimetres.
