ETH, Stiftung Rubel, Zürich, 107 (1992), 151-162 Contemporary threat to the vascular flora of the Polish Carpathians (S. Poland) Zbigniew Mirek and Halina Piekos-Mirkowa 1. INTRODUCTION The Carpathian Mountains cover not more than 7% of the territory of Poland (Fig. 1). In this limited area, however, there is a relatively rich flora comprising more than 1700 vascular plant species (native and established aliens), which is 74% of the total flora of the country (2300 species). The relatively high degree of anthropogenic transformations in the environment of the Polish Carpathians has become a serious threat to many biotopes and species during the last decades. This threat, increasing from year to year, was the reason for preparing the regional list of extinct, threatened and rare vascular plants in the Polish Carpathians. In preparing the "List", special attention has been devoted to the native mountain, endemic, and relict species, as well as to those attaining regional or general limits of their distribution in the area under consideration. Old segetal and ruderal species (archeophytes) have also been taken into account. The critical taxa of Alchemilla, Taraxacum and Hieracium genera, except for principle species, could not be taken into consideration because of insufficient knowledge on their distribution. The threat to the particular species has been estimated according to internationally accepted IUCN categories of the "Red Book" (Lucas and Synge 1978, How to use 1980). Acknowledgements The authors are very grateful to M.Sc. B. Bzowska and M.Sc. J. Sucharska for their technical assistance. - 152 - 2.

Phänologische und symphänologische Artengruppen von Blütenpflanzen Mitteleuropas - Hartmut Dierschke- Zusammenfassung Mit Hilfe blühphänologischer Merkmale von Waldpflanzen wird die Vegetationsperiode in Phäno- phasen nach phänologischen Artengruppen eingeteilt. Diesen Phasen werden 1577 Blütenpflanzen Mittel- europas, vorwiegend solche mit Hauptverbreitung im planaren bis montanen Bereich, zugeordnet, aufge­ teilt auf 12 grobe G esellschaftsgruppen (А-M). Hieraus ergeben sich zwei Artenlisten mit phänologischen bzw. symphänologischen Angaben in gesellschaftsspezifischer Gliederung und alphabetischer Reihenfol­ ge (Anhang 1-2). Für die Gesellschaftsgruppen werden symphänologische Gruppenspektren erstellt und kommentiert. Abstract: Phenological and symphenological species groups of flowering plants of central Europe By means of phenological characteristics (time from beginning to full development of flowering) of forest plant species, 9 phenological groups have been established which characterize phenophases 1-9 of the vegetation period. Afterwards, 1577 plant species of central Europe were classified into these phenolo­ gical groups, especially those growing in lower to montane areas (i.e. excluding alpine plants). These species belong to 12 groups of plant communities (А-M ; some with subgroups a-b). On this basis two species lists are prepared, one with symphenological groups related to the community groups A- M (appendix 1) and one in alphabetic sequence (appendix 2). Symphenological group spectra were estab­ lished and are discussed for the community groups.

(2012): Red List of vascular plants of the Czech Republic: 3rd edition. – Preslia 84: 631–645. The knowledge of the flora of the Czech Republic has substantially improved since the second ver- sion of the national Red List was published, mainly due to large-scale field recording during the last decade and the resulting large national databases. In this paper, an updated Red List is presented and compared with the previous editions of 1979 and 2000. The complete updated Red List consists of 1720 taxa (listed in Electronic Appendix 1), accounting for more then a half (59.2%) of the native flora of the Czech Republic. Of the Red-Listed taxa, 156 (9.1% of the total number on the list) are in the A categories, which include taxa that have vanished from the flora or are not known to occur at present, 471 (27.4%) are classified as critically threatened, 357 (20.8%) as threatened and 356 (20.7%) as endangered. From 1979 to 2000 to 2012, there has been an increase in the total number of taxa included in the Red List (from 1190 to 1627 to 1720) and in most categories, mainly for the following reasons: (i) The continuing human pressure on many natural and semi-natural habitats is reflected in the increased vulnerability or level of threat to many vascular plants; some vulnerable species therefore became endangered, those endangered critically threatened, while species until recently not classified may be included in the Red List as vulnerable or even endangered.

  • Vascular Plant Biodiversity of Floodplain Forest Geobiocoenosis in Lower Morava River Basin (Forest District Tvrdonice), Czech Republic

The study area encompasses 2,200 ha of forests, where 769 segments were inventoried, and 46,886 single records about presence of vascular plant species were catalogued. We found 612 species (incl. subspecies and hybrids), out of which 514 were herbs, 98 were woody plants, 113 were endangered species and 170 were adventive species. The average area of a segment is 2.86 ha. The mean number of species per segment is 60.97 in a range of 4–151. Key words: biodiversity, vascular plants, floodplain forest, forest district Tvrdonice, Czech Republic INTRODUCTION Formations of floodplain forests in Europe are classified as azonal; however, their vegetation differs in particular parts of Europe both in its physiognomy and species composition (Bohn et al. 2003). Floodplains and floodplain forests in alluvia of large rivers are dynamic ecosystems, which are subject to fast changes in the temporal as well as spatial sense (Klimo et al. 2008). They are relatively young communities, as regards their development, and are affected by two main ecological factors – more or less cyclic flooding and a high level of the groundwater (Maděra et al.

  • Isolation and Characterization of Microsatellite Loci for Euphorbia Palustris (Euphorbiaceae)
    Pagination not final/Pagination non finale 1 TECHNIQUES / TECHNIQUES Isolation and characterization of microsatellite loci for Euphorbia palustris (Euphorbiaceae) Walter Durka Abstract: Swamp spurge (Euphorbia palustris, Euphorbiaceae) is a large perennial species of wet grassland and swamps. Its natural habitats are fragmented and isolated both naturally and owing to habitat destruction by human activity. Thus the species is endangered and legally protected in Germany. This report describes seven novel polymorphic microsatellite loci that will be helpful to characterize genetic variation and to analyze the population genetic structure and levels of gene flow within and among populations. All loci were amplified within one multiplex polymerase chain reaction for two popu- lations, yielding between 3 and 13 alleles per locus and high levels of heterozygosity. Trans-species amplification is re- ported for four Euphorbia species. Key words: swamp spurge, wetlands, microsatellites, Euphorbia esula. Re´sume´ : L’euphorbe des marais (Euphorbia palustris, Euphorbiace´es) est une espe`ce pe´renne de grande taille qu’on re- trouve dans les prairies humides et les marais. Ses habitats naturels sont fragmente´s et isole´s tant naturellement que suite a` la destruction des habitats par les humains. Ainsi, cette espe`ce est menace´eetbe´ne´ficie du statut d’espe`ce prote´ge´e en Al- lemagne. Les auteurs ont de´veloppe´ sept nouveaux marqueurs microsatellites qui seront utiles pour caracte´riser la variation ge´ne´tique et pour analyser la structure ge´ne´tique au sein des populations de meˆme que les flux ge´niques parmi et entre ces populations. Tous les locus ont e´te´ amplifie´s lors d’une seule re´action en chaıˆne a` la polyme´rase multiplexe pour deux po- pulations, produisant entre 3 et 13 alle`les par locus et des niveaux e´leve´s d’he´te´rozygotie.

It is considered a so-called river corridor plant that is exclusively or Received in revised form 25 January 2011 predominantly confined to the basins of large rivers. As most natural habitats along European rivers have Accepted 1 February 2011 been destroyed and the remaining habitats fragmented and degraded by the regulation of watercourses, land reclamation, and agricultural intensification, E. palustris is now endangered in most of Central Europe.
