The young twigs are grey-brown and covered in dense stellate hairs. The old bark is dark grey and grooved with blocky plates. The leaf is ovate-elongated, has a regular serrated margin and is glossy dark green. The acorns are oval and are half to three-quarters enclosed by the blue-green cupule. The cupule is covered with long reflexed scales and the upper scales are erect. Depending on the climate of the tree’s location, the tree will be more or less evergreen. During mild winters, the leaf remains on the tree, although it will fall during cold winters. The Trojan oak occurs in the Balkans and western Asia Minor. The tree was named after the location where the first specimen was described: Troy. © Copyright Boomkwekerij Gebr. Van den Berk B.V. 2021.

The next morning early we met our large tour bus and its charming and skillful driver, Grigoris, who hails from the mountain village of Gardiki not far from here. We did a bit of leisurely botanizing before we reached Perdika, our first destination of the day. There are two reasons to visit Perdika: one is the Karavostasi beach, a curving strand with golden sand, and the archaeological site of Dymokastron, a Hellenis- tic mountain-top town reached by a steep hike. The view of the beach far below was beautiful, as it must have been when the town was still inhabited. The town was destroyed in 167 BCE by a Roman army, along with most of the other towns in the vicinity, all allied with Rome’s enemy, Macedonia. The site is under active excavation, and we were able to admire the remnants of protective walls (how in the world did they get those big stones up there?), building foundations, and cisterns, which were certainly needed in case of a prolonged siege, Some members of the IOS Greek tour relaxing under the plane tree in the which Dymocastron must have experienced more than once. village square.

The document was drafted in a participatory approach by involving a wide range of stakeholders and is based on the results of two State of Nature Reports (2006 – 2007 and 2008 – 2009) prepared by the Kosovo Environmental Protection Agency (KEPA) and reports from other sectors. The Kosovo Assembly officially approved the NBSAP 2011 – 2020 on 7 October 2011. The implementation of the Biodiversity Strategy and Action Plan has to be an iterative and cyclical process, as the status and the trends of biodiversity, the threats to environmental goods and ecosystem services, the economic and social values, as well as the political framework may change during the years. Therefore, there is a need for a review and adjustment of this policy instrument, which is in accordance with Article 141 paragraph 5 of the Nature Protection Law No.

The only exception is the Eurasian Sect. Cerris that comprises 15 species, a dozen of which are confined to western Eurasia. This section has not been comprehensively studied using molecular tools. Here, we assess species diversity and reconstruct a first comprehensive taxonomic scheme of western Eurasian members of Sect. Cerris using plastid (trnH-psbA) and nuclear (5S-IGS) DNA variation with a dense intra-specific and geographic sampling.

  • Page 1 the Following Pages Outline Phasing Recommendations for The
    Kruckeberg Botanic Garden Master Site Plan PHASING AND IMPLEMENTATION he following pages outline phasing recommendations for the KruckebergT Botanic Garden that seem desirable to address the needs, vision, and requirements of a private garden’s evolution into the publc domain. With the transfer of this property from a private residence to a commercial public entity, new sets of codes, restrictions, and opportunities come into play. These deal with public safety, health, and well-being and ensure that equal opportunities are afforded to all. Within a limited budget, Phase 1 responds to these immediate needs by providing on-site public parking to reduce impacts to the surrounding residential community, adding much needed public restrooms, and creating a permanent and separate service access road and staff parking area. Phase 2 focuses on siting an interpretive switchback boardwalk trail that connects the upper and lower gardens in an aesthetic ADA-compliant manner. It is also envi- sioned that an ADA-compliant loop path would be routed through the lower garden. While it would be optimal to build the environmental learning center in Phase 2, it is recognized that lack of funding may require deferment to a later phase. Further development of future phases depends on many factors, most importantly securing funding and the commitment of the City, Foundation, and public to sup- port and encourage new work to proceed. In the end, this alone will determine how quickly Garden projects are completed and the Garden vision, as outlined in this report, is realized. This is a modest plan as represented by the development costs associated with each phase in 2010 dollars.

  • Evidence from Multivariate Morphometric Study of the Quercus Pubescens Complex in Southeast Italy

Moro 39, San Giovanni Rotondo, FG, Italy ABSTRACT: The name Quercus pubescens s.l. encompasses a complex of deciduous oak taxa with mainly southeast- European distribution and a large ecological niche. As the easternmost region of Italy, Apulia is rather isolated from a geographical and physiographical viewpoint and counts the highest number of oak species (10). In the taxonomic and phytosociological literature, the occurrence of several species belonging to the Quercus pubescens collective group is reported for this region. In order to verify if different sets of morphological characters are associated with different taxa, 24 populations of Quercus pubescens s.l. located in different ecological-geographical areas of Apulia were sampled. A total of 367 trees, 4254 leaves and 1120 fruits were collected and morphologically analysed. Overall, 25 morphological characters of oak leaves and fruits were statistically treated using both univariate and multivariate analysis. Nested ANOVA showed that leaves collected from a single tree exhibited a degree of morphological variability higher than that observed when comparing leaves coming from different trees of the same population and from different trees of different populations as well.

  • The Local Endemic Flora of Evvia (W Aegean, Greece)
    Willdenowia 36 – 2006 257 PANAYIOTIS TRIGAS & GREGORIS IATROU The local endemic flora of Evvia (W Aegean, Greece) Abstract Trigas, P. & Iatrou, G.: The local endemic flora of Evvia (W Aegean, Greece). – Willdenowia 36 (Spe- cial Issue): 257-270. – ISSN 0511-9618; © 2006 BGBM Berlin-Dahlem. doi:10.3372/wi.36.36121 (available via http://dx.doi.org/) The local endemic element in the flora of the W Aegean island of Evvia comprises 39 taxa (2.1 % of an estimated total of 1833 taxa). The three centres of endemism on the island are the ophiolitic areas of N Evvia, Mt Dirphis in central Evvia and Mt Ochi and the Cape Kafireas area in S Evvia. The majority of the endemic taxa inhabit limestone and ophiolitic habitats. Schizoendemics (80.8 %) form the largest category, followed by apoendemics (11.5 %) and palaeoendemics (7.7 %). Taxonomical comments on selected taxa are provided. The chromosome number of ten taxa is given for the first time. Key words: island biogeography, taxonomy, vascular plants, serpentine, chromosome numbers. Introduction The Aegean area is an important centre of Mediterranean plant endemism, floristically pioneered by Rechinger (1943, 1944, 1949). In the W Aegean, the flora of the island of Evvia was studied in detail (Rechinger 1961, partly based on Phitos 1960). Much floristic and biosystematic work has subsequently been carried out in Evvia and adjacent regions (e.g. Künkele & Paysan 1981, Akeroyd & Preston 1987, Boratyoski & al. 1988, Trigas & Iatrou 2000) and many taxa have been de- scribed from the island in the last decades (Phitos 1964, 1965, 1981, Ehrendorfer & Schönbeck- Temesy 1975, Georgiadis 1980, Phitos & Georgiadis 1981, Phitos & Tzanoudakis 1981, Papani- kolaou & Kokkini 1982, Tiniakou 1991, Brullo & al.
