Luronium Natans
Luronium natans Status UK Biodiversity Action Plan Priority species. Nationally Scarce. Schedule 8, Wildlife & Countryside Act (1981). IUCN Threat category: Least concern (2005). Taxonomy Magnoliopsida: Alismataceae Scientific names: Luronium natans (L.) Raf. Common names: Floating Water-plantain, Dŵr-lyriad Nofiadwy Luronium natans (Alisma natans L.) is a distinct member of the Water-plantain family, and is the only representative of its genus. Biology & Distribution Luronium is under-recorded due to its generally submerged aquatic habitat, shy flowering, great phenotypic plasticity and similarity to other aquatic plants. The leaves do not tend to be caught on NB. Floating grapnels or get washed ashore and often the easiest leaves are way to find it in water is to dive or use a long hooked usually more blunt than pole. It may also be found easily when exposed in Submerged illustrated seasonal ponds. The species can grow in both isolated leaves clumps or extensive lawns on the bottom of canals, lochs, ponds, etc., in water up to 4 m depth. Figure 1. Luronium natans (from J. Sowerby & J. E.

Natural variation at the population level is usualy not continuous, but occurs in discrete units or taxa. Easily the most important taxonomic level is the species because it is often the smallest clearly recognizable and discrete set of populations. • Understanding how species form and how to recognize them have been major challenges to systematists. The variation in one population becomes interrupted, the way to a split into two species strong hairy nearly glabrous Variation on species • Sources of variation: MttiMutation Recombination Independent assortment of the chromosomes Random genetic drift Selection Conservation of species characteristics avoiding gene flow Isolating barriers: temporal (seasonal, diurnal) habitat (wet, dry; calceous, silicious) floral (structural, behavioral eg. adaptations for pollinators) reproductive mode (self fertilisation, agamospery) incompatibility (pollen, seeds) hybrid inviability hybrid floral isolation hybrid sterility hybrid break down Iris germanica Iris sibirica Isolation by habitat Definition of „species“ is not easy A species is the smallest aggregation of populations -

Only a few genera have their centers of distribution in the Balkans and the endemic genus Edraianthus is one of its most prominent groups. As such, Edraianthus is an excellent model not only for studying specia- tion processes and genetic diversity but also for testing hypotheses regarding biogeography, identification and characterization of refugia, as well as post-glacial colonization and migration dynamics in SE Europe. -

Carex Pallens (Cyperaceae), a Species New to Poland

The most important differences between C. pallens and the morphologically similar C. digitata L. are given. The habitat and geographical distribution of C. pallens in Poland are provided.

Boreas, Vol. 44, pp. 638–657. 10.1111/bor.12133. ISSN 0300-9483. Knowledge of present-day communities and ecosystems resembling those reconstructed from the fossil record can help improve our understanding of historical distribution patterns and species composition of past communities. Here, we use a unique data set of 570 plots explored for vascular plant and 315 for land-snail assemblages located along a 650-km-long transect running across a steep climatic gradient in the Russian Altai Mountains and their foothills in southern Siberia. We analysed climatic and habitat requirements of modern populations for eight land-snail and 16 vascular plant species that are considered characteristic of the full-glacial environment of central Europe based on (i) fossil evidence from loess deposits (snails) or (ii) refugial patterns of their modern distribu- tions (plants). The analysis yielded consistent predictions of the full-glacial central European climate derived from both snail and plant populations. We found that the distribution of these 24 species was limited to the areas with mean annual temperature varying from À6.7 to 3.4 °C (median À2.5 °C) and with total annual precipitation vary- ing from 137 to 593 mm (median 283 mm). -
Carex Divisa in Slovakia: Overlooked Or Rare Sedge Species?
16/1 • 2017, 5–12 DOI: 10.1515/hacq-2016-0010 Carex divisa in Slovakia: overlooked or rare sedge species? Daniel Dítě1, Pavol Eliáš jun.2 & Zuzana Melečková1,* Key words: Carex divisa, Abstract halophytes, distribution, Slovakia. Historical and current occurrence of halophytic species Carex divisa was studied in Slovakia during 2003–2014. It is known only in the Podunajská nížina Ključne besede: Carex divisa, Lowland, SW Slovakia, where 19 sites were found in total including historical halofiti, razširjenost, Slovaška. and recent locations. Recently, the number of records decreased markedly and we confirmed only 9 localities. Due to the sharp reduction in the number of sites and appropriate habitats, Carex divisa is re-evaluated as endangered (EN) plant species of the Slovak flora. Izvleček Proučili smo nekdanjo in sedanjo razširjenost halofitske vrste Carex divisa na Slovaškem v letih 2003 in 2014. Njena nahajališča so znana samo iz ravnine Podunajská nížina (jugozahodna Slovaška), kjer smo našli skupno 19 nahajališč, zgodovinskih in sedanjih. V zadnjem obdobju je število nahajališč močno upadlo in potrdili smo jih samo devet. Zaradi močnega upada števila nahajališč in primernih rastišč smo vrsto Carex divisa ponovno opredelili kot ogroženo (EN) rastlinsko vrsto flore Slovaške.

THE IRISH RED DATA BOOK 1 Vascular Plants
THE IRISH RED DATA BOOK 1 Vascular Plants T.G.F.Curtis & H.N. McGough Wildlife Service Ireland DUBLIN PUBLISHED BY THE STATIONERY OFFICE 1988 ISBN 0 7076 0032 4 This version of the Red Data Book was scanned from the original book. The original book is A5-format, with 168 pages. Some changes have been made as follows: NOMENCLATURE has been updated, with the name used in the 1988 edition in brackets. Irish Names and family names have also been added. STATUS: There have been three Flora Protection Orders (1980, 1987, 1999) to date. If a species is currently protected (i.e. 1999) this is stated as PROTECTED, if it was previously protected, the year(s) of the relevant orders are given. IUCN categories have been updated as follows: EN to CR, V to EN, R to V. The original (1988) rating is given in brackets thus: “CR (EN)”. This takes account of the fact that a rare plant is not necessarily threatened. The European IUCN rating was given in the original book, here it is changed to the UK IUCN category as given in the 2005 Red Data Book listing. MAPS and APPENDIX have not been reproduced here. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS We are most grateful to the following for their help in the preparation of the Irish Red Data Book:- Christine Leon, CMC, Kew for writing the Preface to this Red Data Book and for helpful discussions on the European aspects of rare plant conservation; Edwin Wymer, who designed the cover and who, as part of his contract duties in the Wildlife Service, organised the computer applications to the data in an efficient and thorough manner.
