Naturforsch. 51c, 631-634 (1996); received May 23/July8 , 1996 Rubiaceae, Crucianella, Cruciata, Coumarins, Iridoids The coumarin and iridoid composition of Crucianella graeca, Cruciata glabra, Cruciata laevipes and Cruciata pedemontana has been studied. Daphnin and daphnetin glucoside do minated in C. glabra along with low concentrations of daphnetin, deacetylasperulosidic acid and scandoside. In C. laevipes and C. pedemontana were found the same coumarin glucosides along with six iridoid glucosides. In Crucianella graeca were found ten iridoid glucosides. Introduction Thirteen pure compounds (Fig. 1) were isolated and identified by 'H and 13C NMR spectra (Ta Crucianella L. and Cruciata Mill.

NOTES ON EPILOBIUM (ONAGRACEAE) FROM THE WESTERN MEDITERRANEAN by GONZALO NETO FELINER* Resumen NIETO FELINER, G. (1996). Notas sobre los Epilobium (Onagraceae) del Mediterráneo occidental. Anales Jard. Bot. Madrid 54: 255-264 (en inglés). Aportaciones taxonómicas sobre el género Epilobium que son consecuencia de la revisión lle- vada a cabo para producir una síntesis genérica destinada a Flora iberica. En particular, se acla- ran nombres tales como E. mutabile Boiss. & Reut., E. carpetanum Willk., E. psilotum Maire & Samuelsson o E. salcedoi Vicioso, así como varios creados por Sennen (E. barcinonense, E. gredillae, E. losae, E. rigatum, E. barnadesianum, E. debile, E. costeanum) y por Merino (£. maciae, E. simulans, E. tudense y E. lucense). Asimismo, se discute en detalle el problema de E. lamyi F.W. Schultz; en especial, se aclara el uso de dicho nombre por parte de botánicos que han trabajado en España y Portugal, y se rechazan las citas peninsulares del mismo. Se explican algunos problemas taxonómicos derivados de la variabilidad morfológica que exhiben E. duriaei, E. montanum, E. lanceolatum, E. collinum, E. tetragonum subsp. tournefortii y E. obscurum. De este último, adicionalmente, se aportan algunos datos de interés corológico. Palabras clave: Spermatophyta, Epilobium, Onagraceae, taxonomía, corología, Mediterráneo occidental.

Also, the paper provides information about the hayfields floral richness, a great scientific value for Romania and Europe. The study of the flora was carried out in several stages: 2005-2008, 2013, 2017-2018. In the studied area, 397 taxa were identified, distributed in 82 families with therapeutic potential, represented by 164 medical taxa, 37 of them being in the European Pharmacopoeia 8.5. The study reveals that most plants contain: volatile oils (13.41%), tannins (12.19%), flavonoids (9.75%), mucilages (8.53%) etc. This plants can be used in the treatment of various human disorders: disorders of the digestive system, respiratory system, skin disorders, muscular and skeletal systems, genitourinary system, in gynaecological disorders, cardiovascular, and central nervous sistem disorders. In the study plants protected by law at European and national level were identified: Echium maculatum, Cephalaria radiata, Crambe tataria, Narcissus poeticus ssp. radiiflorus, Salvia nutans, Iris aphylla, Orchis morio, Orchis tridentata, Adonis vernalis, Dictamnus albus, Hammarbya paludosa etc. Keywords: Fărăgău, medicinal plants, human disease, Mureş County 1. -

M., 2019 Floristic Study of a Protected Wetland from Borsaros-Sancraieni, Harghita County, Romania
Floristic study of a protected wetland from Borsaros-Sancraieni, Harghita County, Romania 1Emilian Pricop, 2Paul N. Filip, 3Bogdan-Mihai Negrea 1 Natural Sciences Museum of Piatra Neamţ - Neamţ County Museum Complex, Piatra Neamţ, Neamţ, Romania; 2 Faculty of Biology, “Alexandru Ioan Cuza” University of Iaşi, Iaşi, Romania; 3 ”Danube Delta” National Institute for Research and Development, Department of Ecological Restoration and Species Recovery, Tulcea, Romania. Corresponding author: E. Pricop, [email protected] Abstract. In this paper we intend to present a brief floristic survey and the old literature data over an interesting area in the Harghita County, Romania, Borsaros-Sancraieni swamp reserve, area protected since the beginning of 1939. Important personal scientific observations are highlighted. This paper was written specially to reveal the diversity of vascular flora from this area and the surroundings, and the risks which treat this bog. We confirm the presence of main characteristic species of this swamp type and complete the vascular flora species list. This area was mentioned as an important refuge of some rare glacial relict plant species of main conservation importance as: Betula humilis Schrank, Drosera anglica Hudson, Ligularia sibirica L. and Saxifraga hirculus L. Also, we would like to signal a significant change of the initial habitat, for which the area was designated a protected area, due in particular to the anthropic activity but also the lack of involvement in the conservation of nature at local and regional level. Key Words: vascular flora, swamp reserve, Betula humilis Schrank, Drosera anglica Hudson, Ligularia sibirica L., Saxifraga hirculus L., species list, habitat loss, adventive species. -

Dumbrava Roşie, nr. 7-9, 700522–Iaşi, Romania 2 University of Agricultural Sciences and Veterinary Medicine Iaşi, Faculty of Agriculture, Str. Mihail Sadoveanu, nr. 3, 700490–Iaşi, Romania Corresponding author: [email protected] This second part of the paper about the vascular flora of Rarău Massif listed approximately half of the whole number of the species registered by the authors in their field trips or already included in literature on the same area. Other taxa have been added to the initial list of plants, so that, the total number of taxa registered by the authors in Rarău Massif amount to 1443 taxa (1133 species and 310 subspecies, varieties and forms). There was signaled out the alien taxa on the surveyed area (18 species) and those dubious presence of some taxa for the same area (17 species). Also, there were listed all the vascular plants, protected by various laws or regulations, both internal or international, existing in Rarău (i.e. 189 taxa). Finally, there has been assessed the degree of wild flora conservation, using several indicators introduced in literature by Nowak, as they are: conservation indicator (C), threat conservation indicator) (CK), sozophytisation indicator (W), and conservation effectiveness indicator (E). Key words: Vascular flora, Rarău Massif, Romania, conservation indicators. 1. INTRODUCTION A comprehensive analysis of Rarău flora, in terms of plant diversity, taxonomic structure, biological, ecological and phytogeographic characteristics, as well as in terms of the richness in endemics, relict or threatened plant species was published in our previous note (see Oprea & Sîrbu 2012). -

Seregin, Pavel E. Yevseyenkov, Sergey A. Svirin & Alexander V. Fateryga Summary: We report 323 new vascular plant species for the Sevastopol area, an administrative unit in the south-western Crimea. Records of 204 species are confirmed by herbarium specimens, 60 species have been reported recently in literature and 59 species have been either photographed or recorded in field in 2008 –2014. Seventeen species and nothospecies are new records for the Crimea: Bupleurum veronense, Lemna turionifera, Typha austro-orientalis, Tyrimnus leucographus, × Agrotrigia hajastanica, Arctium × ambiguum, A. × mixtum, Potamogeton × angustifolius, P. × salicifolius (natives and archaeophytes); Bupleurum baldense, Campsis radicans, Clematis orientalis, Corispermum hyssopifolium, Halimodendron halodendron, Sagina apetala, Solidago gigantea, Ulmus pumila (aliens). Recently discovered Calystegia soldanella which was considered to be extinct in the Crimea is the most important confirmation of historical records. The Sevastopol area is one of the most floristically diverse areas of Eastern Europe with 1859 currently known species. Keywords: Crimea, checklist, local flora, taxonomy, new records A checklist of vascular plants recorded in the Sevastopol area was published seven years ago (Seregin 2008). -
