Цель исследований: обобщение разрозненных сведений о видах декоративной флоры Чеченской республики и смежных территорий, выявление высоко устойчивых декоративных расте- ний для городов и населенных пунктов Северного Кавказа и других территорий России. Обсужде- ние. В настоящее время в различных ботанических садах Северного Кавказа произрастает боль- шое количество декоративных видов растений, широко применяемых в зеленом строительстве. Однако не все виды и формы обладают достаточной устойчивостью к неблагоприятным условиям измененной абиотической и биотической среды. Среди исследуемых наиболее ценными и перспек- тивными для широкого внедрения являются виды более 122 таксонов, декоративность которых сохраняется в течение всего года при отсутствии признаков старения. Приведено множество при- меров целевого использования трав, древесных видов, лиан, луковичных растения. Указан боль- шой перечень кавказских видов для выращивания на газонах, клумбах, рабатках, в цветниках, на альпийских и каменистых горах, в придорожных и парковых посадках, в городских парках, скверах и аллеях при других формах озеленения. Учтены их декоративные свойства, живучесть, долговеч- ность, жизненная форма и другие биоэкологические особенности, отношение к абиотическим фак- торам (почвенно-грунтовым условиям, освещению, температуре, режиму почвенного и атмосфер- ного условиям увлажнения и др.).

In this work, we aimed to study the distribution and habitat of rare Caucasian tenebrionid beetle Hedyphanes nycterinoides, as well as to identify reasons for the population re‐ duction and to develop a basis for its protection. Methods. Materials from the largest collection of the Zoological Institute RAS (St Petersburg) along with the authors’ fieldwork data were used for mapping the past and current distribution of the species, as well as for studying its habitat and possible trophic relations. Results. The taxonomic history of H. nycterinoides is com‐ plicated due to the loss of the type material. This taxon is currently interpreted as a separate species. H. nycterinoides is distributed across Piedmont Dagestan and Intermountain Dagestan (Russia); however, all known specimens were collected only in the 19th‐20th centuries (the last record is dated 1984). The population of H. nycterinoides from Intermountain Dagestan is likely to have died out due to the filling of the Irganay reservoir in 2008. Only one present‐day popu‐ lation from the arid Rubas valley in Southern Dagestan is known.

  • The Results of Plant Monitoring in the Semistozhki Area of Stavropol Region
    AgroSMART 2019 International scientific and practical conference ``AgroSMART - Smart solutions for agriculture'' Volume 2019 Conference Paper The Results of Plant Monitoring in the Semistozhki Area of Stavropol Region E N Seliverstova, V V Khrapach, V V Volkova, and N V Shegrinets Stavropol Botanical Garden named after V.V. Skripchinskiy – a branch of North Caucasus Federal Scientific Agricultural Centre, Stavropol, Russia Abstract Preserving biodiversity is a global problem that was reflected in the Convention on Biological Diversity which appeared in 1992. The adoption of the Convention was an answer for the intensified problem of a significant reduction in the diversity of genetic resources. Botanical gardens are the main centres for preserving the biodiversity of plants that solve the problem of preserving the gene pool. One of the main tasks of botanical gardens is to monitor plant populations in their natural habitats in situ. This paper describes the monitoring of the current state of peonies and sedges in the Semistozhki area of Andropov district in the Stavropol region. The research determines the growing locations and the belongingness of species to plant associations in the Corresponding Author: vegetation variety of Stavropol region. It also determines the species that may be E N Seliverstova treated as rare due to their limited distribution area. The territory is marked by the [email protected] presence of Paeonia tenuifolia L., which is a tertiary relict, and Paeonia biebersteiniana Received: 25 October 2019 Rupr., which is subendimic for Stavropol region.

Ботанический сад Пермского государственного национального исследовательского университета был создан в 1922 г. по инициативе и под руководством проф. А.Г. Генкеля. Здесь работали известные ученые – ботаники Д.А. Сабинин, В.И. Баранов, Е.А. Павский, внесшие своими исследованиями большой вклад в развитие биологических наук на Урале. В настоящее время Ботанический сад имени профессора А.Г. Генкеля входит в состав регионального Совета ботанических садов Урала и Поволжья, имеет статус научного учреждения и особо охраняемой природной территории. Основными научными направлениями работы являются: интродукция и акклиматизация растений, выведение и отбор новых форм и сортов, наиболее стойких и продуктивных в местных условиях. Ботанический сад расположен на двух участках общей площадью 2,7 га. Коллекции включают около 8 000 видов, форм и сортов древесных, кустарниковых и травянистых растений, произрастающих в открытом и закрытом грунте. Из оранжерейных растений полнее всего представлены выходцы из тропиков и субтропиков.

Seliverstova, and V.V. Volkova* Federal state budgetary scientific institution «North-Caucasus Federal Agricultural Research Centre», 356241, Mikhailovsk, Russia Abstract. The purpose of this work was to conduct plant monitoring in the vicinity of Lake Kravtsovo within the framework of preserving animal and plant world biodiversity. Lake-swamp Kravtsovo - a unique object of the Stavropol upland, here you can study the diversity of almost half of the entire flora and fauna of Stavropol Territory. 139 species of vascular plants were registered in the studied territory, among which 11 are subject to protection – Paeonia tenuifolia L., Cladium mariscus (L.) Ponl, Iris notha M. Bieb., I. halophila Pall., Adonis vernalis L., Calamagrostis canescens (Weber) Roth, Utricularia vulgaris L., Carex panicea L., C. ericetorum Pollich, Lythrum thesioides Bieb, Thelypteris palustris Schott. In the structure of the coenosis, the most part is occupied by forbs – 67 %, then cereals – 27 %, legumes in a smaller amount – 6 %. The composition and structure of the community are changed in some way by grazing of farm animals, land plowing and afforestation (a characteristic increase in the proportion of shrubs and trees). The initial stage of pasture degression and the associated increase in the role of associated grazing species (poisonous, prickly, poorly eaten and weedy) are observed. The horizontal structure of the vegetation cover is also heterogeneous. 1 Introduction The preservation of animal and plant world biodiversity is a mandatory condition for sustainable development of the biosphere.

    ••••• JUNE 1975 Number 15 The Species Iris Study Group of the American Iris Society Iris pse11dacorus is our "cover girl" for this issue. It is the tallest of irises, and in conditions which suit it, it also is the most vigorous of mses. The foliage is of an attractive blue-green color, and so graceful and handsome is the foliage that the plant makes a striking focal point in the garden even when not in bloom. For the size of the plant, the golden colored blossoms are rather small and fragile, and the standards are so insignificant in size as to pass unnoticed. Even so, the blossom is beautiful both in proportion and in form. Iris pseudacorus is a swamp species; it is native to a large part of the European continent and to the British Isles, from which areas it has been carried by man to North America, Asia, Africa, South America, and Australia. In each of those continents, it has escaped from gardens and has "gone wild" along the banks of nearby streams and estuaries. During the 1975 AIS Convention in San Diego, several clones of Iris pseudacorus were in bloom under seedling numbers in the guest iris beds. These were selected by Dave Niswonger, of l\l'issouri, from among the thousands of seedlings which he has grown in an effort to obtain variant forms arid colors of this species for garden use. For a very unorthodox concept of the origin of Iris pseudacorus, see the article by Freeman Yendall which appears on page 406 of this issue.
