    Managing Molinia? Proceedings of a 3-day conference 14-16 September 2015 in Huddersfield, West Yorkshire, UK. Edited by Roger Meade National Trust Molinia Conference organising committee at Marsden Moor Estate office. L-R: Alan Stopher, Craig Best, Roger Meade, Nick Pollett and Andrew Underdown. With assistance from Rob Henry, Alyssa Young and Frances DeGiorgio (not in picture). Cover image © Alan Stopher View towards Pule Hill north-eastwards from the route of the old turnpike. Redbrook reservoir is in the middle distance. This is one of the original canal reservoirs which is maintained by Canal & River Trust with the water supplying Yorkshire Water’s customers. A sailing club also uses the amenity. Molinia tussocks dominate the foreground. 2 ‘Managing Molinia’ Conference, 14-16 September 2015, Huddersfield, UK; National Trust, ed. R Meade To cut, or not to cut. A very straightforward question, but so much Foreword more succinct than the answer. This is the dilemma often faced by managers of land for nature conservation where the easiest solution is to just follow what others are doing. As a former habitat specialist for a statutory nature conservation body, I am familiar with the pressures to provide clear guidance and one I remember well is the popular belief that any trees on lowland raised bogs should be cut down and prevented from regrowth. While there is a case for adopting this principle in many situations there are those in which it is not necessary, and is even undesirable from other perspectives such as the trees’ contribution to the landscape. It means that the conservation land manager must not only be aware of the bare bones of the received wisdom, but also of the caveats that make it possible for him or her to arrive at a reasoned judgement for their specific situation.

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).

  • Pondnet RECORDING FORM (PAGE 1 of 5)
    WETLAND PLANTS PondNet RECORDING FORM (PAGE 1 of 5) Your Name Date Pond name (if known) Square: 4 fig grid reference Pond: 8 fig grid ref e.g. SP1243 e.g. SP 1235 4325 Determiner name (optional) Voucher material (optional) METHOD (complete one survey form per pond) Aim: To assess pond quality and conservation value, by recording wetland plants. How: Identify the outer boundary of the pond. This is the ‘line’ marking the pond’s highest yearly water levels (usually in early spring). It will probably not be the current water level of the pond, but should be evident from wetland vegetation like rushes at the pond’s outer edge, or other clues such as water-line marks on tree trunks or stones. Within the outer boundary, search all the dry and shallow areas of the pond that are accessible. Survey deeper areas with a net or grapnel hook. Record wetland plants found by crossing through the names on this sheet. You don’t need to record terrestrial species. For each species record its approximate abundance as a percentage of the pond’s surface area. Where few plants are present, record as ‘<1%’. If you are not completely confident in your species identification put ’?’ by the species name. If you are really unsure put ‘??’. Enter the results online: www.freshwaterhabitats.org.uk/projects/waternet/ or send your results to Freshwater Habitats Trust.

  • Plant Diversity and Spatial Vegetation Structure of the Calcareous Spring Fen in the "Arkaulovskoye Mire" Protected Area (Southern Urals, Russia)
    Plant diversity and spatial vegetation structure of the calcareous spring fen in the "Arkaulovskoye Mire" Protected Area (Southern Urals, Russia) E.Z. Baisheva1, A.A. Muldashev1, V.B. Martynenko1, N.I. Fedorov1, I.G. Bikbaev1, T.Yu., Minayeva2, A.A. Sirin2 1Ufa Institute of Biology, Russian Academy of Sciences Ufa Federal Research Centre, Ufa, Russian Federation 2Institute of Forest Science, Russian Academy of Sciences, Uspenskoe, Russian Federation _______________________________________________________________________________________ SUMMARY The plant communities of base-rich fens are locally rare and have high conservation value in the Republic of Bashkortostan (Russian Federation), and indeed across the whole of Russia. The flora and vegetation of the calcareous spring fen in the protected area (natural monument) “Arkaulovskoye Mire” (Republic of Bashkortostan, Southern Urals Region) was investigated. The species recorded comprised 182 vascular plants and 87 bryophytes (67 mosses and 20 liverworts), including 26 rare species listed in the Red Data Book of the Republic of Bashkortostan and seven species listed in the Red Data Book of the Russian Federation. The study area is notable for the presence of isolated populations of relict species whose main ranges are associated with humid coastal and mountainous regions in Central Europe. The vegetation cover of the protected area consists of periodically flooded grey alder - bird cherry forests, sedge - reed birch and birch - alder forested mire, sparse pine and birch forested mire with dominance of Molinia caerulea, base-rich fens with Schoenus ferrugineus, islets of meso-oligotrophic moss - shrub - dwarf pine mire communities, aquatic communities of small pools and streams, etc. Examination of the peat deposit indicates the occurrence of both historical and present-day travertine deposition.

Eksperimentālā apsaimnie- košana veikta dabas liegumā „Sakas grīņi”. Mežaudzes reprezentē Pinus sylvestris – Molinia caerulea – Erica tetralix un Pinus sylvestris – Calluna vulgaris – Erica tetralix sabiedrību, bet virsājs – Calluna vulgaris – Vaccinium vitis-ideae – Carex nigra sabiedrību, kurā vietām aug Erica tetralix. Pētījuma mērķis bija novērtēt nevēlamo koku un krūmu izciršanas un virsāju atjaunošanas eksperimentu rezultātus pirmajā gadā pēc pasākumu veikšanas. Tika izvirzītas sekojošas hipotēzes: 1) dominējošā Calluna vulgaris nopļaušana un augsnes traucējumu imitēšana sekmē grīņa sārtenes pavairošanos; 2) nopļaujot virsāju, pieaug augu sugu daudzveidība; 3) izcērtot kokus un krūmus, palielinās grīņa sārtenes projektīvais segums grīnī. Sugu sastāvs un projektīvais segums tika analizēts 24 laukumiņos mežaudzē un 12 laukumiņos virsājā pirms un pēc eksperimentālo apsaimniekošanas pasākumu veikšanas. Grīņa sārtenes projektīvais segums nepalielinājās pirmajā gadā pēc koku un krūmu izciršanas. Taču tā kā sugas fotosistēmas darbības efektivitāte izcirstajā vietā bija lielāka nekā mežaudzē, kur koki un krūmi netika izcirsti, ir pamats uzskatīt, ka sugas projektīvais segums turpmākajos gados pieaugs. Pēc koku un krūmu izciršanas ir samazinājies Molinia caerulea se- gums, kam par iemeslu var būt gan koku un krūmu izciršana, gan lielais nokrišņu daudzums reģionā 2007. gadā, jo Molinia caerulea segums ir samazinājies arī parauglaukumā, kurā netika izcirsti koki un krūmi.
