Are the Urban and Periurban Adventive Plants a Potential Threat Factor for Diversity of the Autochthonous Flora in Serbia?
Olga Vasié Are the urban and periurban adventive plants a potential threat factor for diversity of the autochthonous flora in Serbia? Abstract Vasié, o.: Are the urban and periurban adventive plants a potential threat factor for diversity of the autochthonous flora in Serbia? - Bocconea 16(1): 81-91. 2003. ISSN 1120-4060. First data on the adventive plants in Serbia date from XIX century, but the intensive studies begin in the lasl fifty years. At the beginning the records of new ad venti ve species were com mented as one way of enriching flora. It was, however, noted that some species spread sub spontaneously, and rarely even spontaneously, but that was not considered very important. Today, when we know how important it is to preserve the natural diversity ofthe autochthonous flora and vegetation, the presence of the adventive plants must be considered to be a threaten ing factor. As a rule, these plants come from the remote biogeographic areas, -and in the new habitats have neither natura I enemies nor competition. They mostly have the low ecological requirements and the high level of ability to adjust. Some of these species spread very aggres sively, especially in areas where the natural vegetation is disturbed or destroyed, and habitats devastated. By occupying that space, they disable the natural reversible processes of the autochthonous flora. After they enter the natural vegetation, they cause the relationship changes within communities, and lead to the serious disturbance ofthe natural succession. Factor ofthe introduction and further spreading of the adventive plants, both direct and indirect, is always anthropogenous. -

Typha species in Frankfurt/Main (Hesse) Summary: We surveyed 153 water bodies in Frankfurt am Main for Typha taxa. Apart from the indigenous taxa Typha angustifolia and Typha latifolia, we found naturalized populations of Typha shuttleworthii and cultivations of Typha laxmannii. We also found multiple specimens of Typha ×glauca, a hybrid of Typha angustifolia and Typha latifolia.

Marginal Plants Hardy & Tropical
Marginal Plants Hardy & Tropical For more information about the Colorado Water Garden Society or other aspects of pond keeping along the front-range go to: http://www.colowatergardensociety.org or send an e-mail to: [email protected] Written by Bob Hoffman, originally published 2005 Revised by Bob Hoffman & Edited by Dorothy Martinez 2013 ©Copyright 1999 - 2021, All Rights Reserved www.colowatergardensociety.org This brochure will investigate marginal plants by species. Marginal plants are used in the shallow part of your pond. Water plants are listed with a hardiness zone where they are best grown, but with some care most water plants can be kept year-round. Most water plants are listed as hardy or tropical. For those of us living in Metro Denver, depending on our Winter, "hardy" translates to mean zone 5 or 6. A tropical to us is normally zone 7. What that means is any plant with a zone 7 or higher must be protected, while zone 6 is borderline. Protection can mean protection from freezing to treating the plant as a houseplant for the Winter. HARDY MARGINALS ARROW ARUM Araceae Peltandra, Zone 5 - 9 Arrowhead shaped leaf on a 1' - 2' tall stem Peltandra sagittifolia can produce white flowers. Peltandra virginica can produce green flowers.

Regardless, in Serbia this issue is neglected, without appropriate institutional collaboration. To evaluate state of art in Ser- bia, adopted laws and regulations, published scientific papers, concluded and ongoing research projects with emphasis of recorded alien species to date are reviewed. Alien species are defined as allochtonous species in policy documents, while in scientific papers approaches depend on the subject. By now, 346 invasive alien species were recorded in Serbia. Plants present the most numerous group of species, with 172 recorded alien species. Insects are the second large group with 78 species. Apart from them, important are records of cyanobacteria and fungi, while for the first time are summarized data about alien and potentially invasive bird species. Aqauatic ecosystems are the most vurn- eralbe and threatened by spread of invasive alien species in Serbia, with more than 80 aqatic alien organisms. -

The definition of features is primarily based on double stained microscopic slides from recently collected material. The origin of some feature-characterization originates from monographs of Schenk 1886 and Evans 2003, Seago et al. -

Monographie Der Gattung Typha Tourn. (Typhinae Agdh., Typhaceae Schur-Engl.)
© Zool.-Bot. Ges. Österreich, Austria; download unter www.biologiezentrum.at 89 Monographie der Gattung Typha Tourn. (Typhinae Agdh., Typhaceae Schur-Engl.). Von Dr. M. Kronfeld. (Mit Tafel IV und V.) (Vorgelegt in der Versammlung am 7. Jänner 1888.) I. Einleitung. (Geschichtlicher Ueberblick. Allgemeines.) Es konnte nicht fehlen, dass eine allerwärts verbreitete und physiog- nomisch so sehr auffallende Gattung wie Typha schon von den ersten Natur- forschern beachtet wurde. In der That nennt bereits des Aristoteles Schüler Theophrast (371—286 n. Chr.) an mehreren Stellen seiner Pflanzengeschichte ein Gewächs ncpr). Und sicher ist, dass wir mindestens ein oder zwei der Beleg- stellen auf die Typha im heutigen Sinne beziehen dürfen. Legen wir nämlich die Ausgabe Theophrast's von Heinsius (Leyden, 1613) zu Grunde, so sind von vorneherein auszuschliessen: I 9, II 5, VIII 8 (p. 11, 31, 152, 155, 157), wo es sich bestimmt um ein gesätes (VIII) und in Weizen (II 5, VIII 8) umwandelbares Getreide1) handelt. Dagegen könnte die tup») I 8 mit knotenlosen Stengeln unsere Typha bedeuten. Ohne Zweifel ist als solche die Pflanze in IV 11 anzusehen. Von dieser heisst es, sie wachse im See Orchomenos und sei zur Speise geeignet, indem die Knaben gerne an dem zarten Theile kauen, welcher den Wurzeln zunächst ist. Des Näheren auf den ökonomischen Abschnitt verweisend, wollen wir hier nur daran erinnern, dass den Kosaken am Don der Wurzelstock von Typha latifolia noch heute zur beliebten Speise dient. Ob Theophrast diese Art im Sinne habe, wie Spren- gel2) meint, oder ob unter seiner xtcprj die in ganz Griechenland vorkommende Typha angustata Bory et Chaub. -

Often having no natural predators or controls, introduced species have the potential to out-compete native species, especially threatened or endangered plants and animals which are sensitive to environmental stress. In addition to local extinctions of native species by direct competition for resources, invasive species may affect other organisms that depend on the displaced species for food or habitat. Menominee County/Town, Menominee Indian Tribe of Wisconsin (MITW), Timberland Invasives Partnership (TIP), the Connecting Our Waters (COW) program of the Fox-Wolf Watershed Alliance (Fox-Wolf) and the Waterways Association of Menominee and Shawano Counties (WAMSCO), and several tribal departments were consulted to develop this plan; which is consistent with the MITW Strategic Plan and the County/Town of Menominee Comprehensive Plan. -
