Kholodny Institute of Botany, National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine 2 Tereshchenkivska Str., Kyiv 01004, Ukraine Abstract. The article provides a synopsis of tribes Galegeae, Hedysareae, Loteae, Cicereae of Fabaceae subfam. Faboideae in the flora of Ukraine, with nomenclatural citations, types, and main synonyms. It is based on critical analysis of available data of taxonomic, morphological, and molecular phylogenetic studies. Tribe Galegeae is best represented in the flora of Ukraine, comprising 10 genera, including the most species-rich genus Astragalus (48 species). However, the number of genera in the tribe will be probably changed due to further results of morphological and molecular phylogenetic studies which already indicate possible inclusion of Calophaca and Halimodendron in Caragana s. l.; however, these data require confirmation. Tribe Loteae is accepted here in a wide circumscription, including Coronilleae, which is in accordance with results of new morphological and molecular studies. There are 9 genera (or 7, in a wider circumscription) in the tribe, but the number of natural genera in that group will be clarified after further studies.

  • Red List of Vascular Plants of the Western Suwałki Lakeland, North-Eastern Poland
    ISSN 2336-3193 Acta Mus. Siles. Sci. Natur., 66: 65-73, 2017 DOI: 10.1515/cszma-2017-0007 Published: online April 2017, print April 2017 Red list of vascular plants of the Western Suwałki Lakeland, north-eastern Poland Artur Pliszko Red list of vascular plants of the Western Suwałki Lakeland, north-eastern Poland. – Acta Mus. Siles. Sci. Natur., 66: 65-73, 2017. Abstract: The paper presents a regional red list of vascular plant species native to the Western Suwałki Lakeland, north-eastern Poland, based on the IUCN red list categories and criteria. The distribution and abundance data were obtained from the field floristic inventories carried out in 2008- 2016 using the ATPOL cartogram method. The historical occurrences of vascular plant species were revised in the field. The list comprises 203 species, including seven regionally extinct species, 43 critically endangered species, 49 endangered species, 25 vulnerable species, 48 near threatened species, and 31 data deficient species. The results are compared to the Polish national red list of pteridophytes and flowering plants and briefly discussed. Key words: extinction, IUCN red list categories and criteria, threatened species, Poland. Introduction Species extinction is a common phenomenon caused by various natural and anthropogenic factors. The risk of species extinction can be evaluated at global, continental, national or regional level using the uniform categories and criteria recommended by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN Standards and Petitions Subcommittee 2016). These categories and criteria are widely applied as a standard method for preparing red lists and books of threatened species. In Poland, the first national red list of vascular plants was published in 1986 (Zarzycki 1986) and it has been updated three times (Zarzycki & Szeląg 1992, 2006, Kaźmierczakowa et al.

It includes large extensions of semi-natural grasslands, maintained by tradi- tional transhumant grazing for centuries. The patterns and drivers of grassland composition within the Park are still poorly investigated, and the scattered phytosociological data available were often based on relevés with varied and not precisely defined sizes. In order to provide for the first time a general overview of the Park’s

  • Towards an Excursion Flora for Austria and All the Eastern Alps
    42 (1): (2018) 5-33 Review article Towards an Excursion Flora for Austria and all the Eastern Alps Manfred A. Fischer✳ Department of Botany and Biodiversity Research, University of Vienna, Rennweg 14, 1030 Vienna, Austria ABSTRACT: This is on the one hand an announcement of the two-volume Fourth Edition of the Excursion Flora for Austria expanded by also including the remaining parts of the Eastern Alps (chapter 1), and on the other hand a rough survey of the flora of the Eastern Alps in connection with the main vegetation types (chapter 2). The geographical scope includes, besides Austria, the entire Eastern Alps from the Rhine valley in E Switzerland (Grisons) to the Vipava valley in SW Slovenia. Volume 1 mainly contains comprehensive introductory chapters like introductions to plant morphology, taxonomy, and nomenclature, as well as a sketch of ecomorphology and habitat ecology, a survey of vegetation types (phytosociology) and floristic peculiarities of the different natural regions, a rough history of floristic research, a detailed glossary including the meaning of epithets, etc., and drawings of several plant species characteristic of the flora covered. The structure of the keys concentrated in volume 2 is explained: besides the descriptive traits, they include for each taxon comprehensive ecological and plant geographical data, as well as information about Red Lists of the countries involved, plant uses, and taxonomical problems. Genus names are given not only in German, but also in the Romansh (Rumantsch Grischun), Italian, and Slovenian languages. In chapter 2, some important chorotypes including endemics are characterised, and an overview of floristic diversity (lists of exemplary taxa) in accordance with the main and most characteristic vegetation types is presented.
