Ptarmica were analyzed for their aglycone pro"les. The study focuses on species commonly associated with A. moschata. The major #avonoid constituents found in exudates of most taxa were 6-hydroxy#avonol 3,6,4-trimethyl ethers, except in A. ageratifolia and its subspecies, which are characterized by the accumulation of the 3,6,7-trimethoxy and 6-hydroxy#avones. Infraspeci"c variation was particularly high in A. abrotanoides and A. moschata. Results are discussed in relation to published data for related species and within the context of evolutionary aspects in the genus Achillea. The 3,6,4-trimethoxy substitution is regarded as a basic chemical trend within the genus Achillea. Geographical and ecological aspects are brie#y addressed, and a summary on known exudate aglycone composition of species from all sections of Achillea is included. ( 2001 Elsevier Science Ltd.

Wollenweber / Biochemical Systematics and Ecology 29 (2001) 149}159 1. Introduction Achillea sect. Ptarmica (Mill.) W.D.J. Koch comprises about 30 species, depending on delimitation. The major feature of this section is the tendency to form large capitula with ligulae numbering 8}20 or more, and the general lack of transversely oriented primary lea#ets. Basically, the section may be divided into two larger parts: the species related to A. ptarmica L., and a larger group of alpine species. Both groups are morphologically and ecologically well de"ned (see Heimerl, 1884). Apart fromHeimerl (1884), no further attempts have been made towards infrasectional classi"cation includ- ing all species of this section. Considerable variation in morphological characters may be found within the alpine taxa (Heimerl, 1884; Valant-Vetschera, 1981), leading sometimes to di!erent concepts of species delimitation (Richardson, 1976; Pignatti, 1982). In earlier studies, several groups within the alpine taxa were distinguished on the basis of #avonoid glycoside pro"les and morphologial characters (Valant, 1978; Valant-Vetschera, 1981). Thus, species were grouped around the following taxa: A. atrata L., A. moschata Wulf. including A. clavennae and A. ageratifolia (Sibth. and Smith) Boiss., and the small groups such as A. fraasii Schultz-Bip., and A. lingulata Waldst. & Kit. These groups are in most parts in accordance with later concepts (FranzeH n, 1986, 1988a, 1991; Pignatti, 1982), but they do not represent taxonomically recognized units. Other phytochemical investigations mostly relate to polyacetylenes and terpenoids. Roots of A. ageratifolia subsp. serbica have been intensively studied, to yield new isobutylamides (Greger et al., 1983) and pyrrole amides (Greger et al., 1987a), while A. chamaemelifolia Poir. of the A. erba-rotta group produced simple alkamides (Greger et al., 1987b). Achillea abrotanoides (Vis.) Vis. of the same group was analyzed for its volatile constituents with a view to its replacing A. moschata Wulf. and other species used in production of herb liqueur (Bicchi et al., 1988; Hanlidou et al., 1992). A survey reports on essential oils and chromosome numbers of A. erba-rotta, A. moschata (of the same group) and A. nana L. (of the A. atrata-group; Ma!ei et al., 1989). Sesquiterpene lactones were identi"ed from A. abrotanoides of the A. moschata group (Stefanovic et al., 1989). Volatiles and other chemical constituents of A. moschata are listed by Duke (1992). The presence of chamazulene in this species may be responsible for its various uses in ethnopharmacology. Detailed #avonoid-distribution studies at the populational level, comprising both aglycones and glycosides have been carried out on taxa associated with A. ageratifolia and A. clavennae, respectively (FranzeH n, 1988b). Earlier studies revealed the presence of free aglycones in the exudates of A. abrotanoides, A. moschata, A. ageratifolia (Valant-Vetschera and Wollenweber, 1985), and of A. umbellata Sibth. and Smith (Wollenweber et al., 1987). The aglycone pro"les of the species related to A. clusiana Tausch ("A. atrata group) were reported recently (Valant-Vetschera and Wollen- weber, 1996a). In completion of our systematic survey on Achillea #avonoid aglycones (Valant-Vetschera and Wollenweber, 1996b, 1999), we wish to report on the pro"les of the remaining alpine species of sect. Ptarmica. Infraspeci"c variation of aglycone The infrasectional concept of Heimerl (1884) does not follow the acknowledged nomenclatural rules and is therefore nomenclaturally invalid. Hence, its taxonomic application would be incorrect. K.M. Valant-Vetschera, E. Wollenweber / Biochemical Systematics and Ecology 29 (2001) 149}159 151 composition and the signi"cance of accumulation trends for infrageneric relationships form the focus of this publication. 2.

Individual #avonoids were identi"ed in relevant fractions by co-chromatography with authentic samples avail- able in E.W.'s lab. Fractions were monitored on TLC and comparisons with markers were performed on silica with toluene/ MeCOEt (9 : 1), or with toluene/MeCOEt/ MeOH (12 : 5 : 3) and with toluene/ dioxane/ glacial acetic acid (18 : 5 : 1), and on polyamide with toluene/petrol 100}140/ MeCOEt/ MeOH (12 : 6 : 2 : 1) and toluene/ dioxane/ MeOH (8 : 1 : 1). Chromatograms were viewed under UV before and after spraying with `Natursto!reagenz Aa (NA). For additional structural con"rma- tion, UV-spectra and mass spectra were recorded when necessary. 3.

Until now the biodiversity of endemic and relic plants in Shutman has not been completely described. The present study is the first on this subject for the Shutman Reserve. The purpose of the study is to investigate the biodiversity of endemic and relic plant species also their conservation status. The plants were collected during the vegetative period, May – September 2018. In total, in this paper are presented 42 vascular plants. From which, 24 species are Balkan endemics, 2 species are sub-endemics, 2 species are steno-endemics and 1specie is Central and South-eastern Europe endemic. Nearly 12 of Shutman’s investigated vascular plants are tertiary and glacial relics. A total of 24 taxa have a protection status. The biological type of species represented mainly by perennial herbaceous plants (95%). The largest percentage of floristic elements to describe appertain the Balkan type (40.48%) and Boral type (9.52%), whereas the hemi-cryptophytic dominate among the life forms, with 59.52%.

Italian Botanist 12: 1–27. https://doi.org/10.3897/ italianbotanist.12.65699 Abstract Four species of Gymnadenia are native to Kosovo: G. conopsea, G. frivaldii, G. nigra, and G. odoratissima. In this study, field expedition data, phytosociological relevés, herbarium specimens along with extensive literature sources were used to analyse vegetation and ecological characteristics, habitat types, distribu- tional patterns as well as provide notes on conservation. Gymnadenia conopsea is distributed throughout the country, from lowlands to the alpine belt. It was recorded in various plant communities. Gymnadenia frivaldii grows in the alpine zone of mountains, close to streams and in wet meadows. Its relevés belong to the class Scheuchzerio-Caricetea fuscae. This species is classified as “Near Threatened” (NT) in Kosovo. Gymnadenia nigra grows in subalpine and alpine grassland on preferably calcareous substrate. It has been found in almost all mountains reaching >2000 m a.s.l., and occurs in different plant communities belong- ing to the class: Elyno-Seslerietea.

Nat. Croat., Vol. 30, No. 1, 1-11, 2021, Zagreb. This paper aims to present the diversity of endemic plants in the Shutman area and an analysis of chorological groups and life forms. The flora of Shutman comprises 31 endemic plant species. Among them, there are 20 Balkan endemics, 1 stenoendemic and 5 sub-endemic species. They belong to 20 genera and 13 families. The richest among the endemics are families Asteraceae and Caryophyllaceae, both with 4 species. All endemics are herbaceous perennials. Hemicryptophytes dominate among life forms, accounting for 58.06%. Most of the species are Balkan floristic elements (20 species or 64.52%), followed by Southeast European and South European floristic elements, both with 3 taxa (9.68%). A total of 27 species have national or international conservation status.
