To draw up a management plan within three years in order to guarantee the preservation of the reserve and its cohesion within the larger area of the nature park. In June 2015 we delivered our Management Plan for the Siebengebirge Nature Reserve within the requested period. As expounded in our 2017 annual report, its relevant project aims are to be implemented within the Large Scale Conservation Project “Chance7 – Natur – und Kulturlandschaft zwischen Siebengebirge und Sieg”.This 14.6 million € budget national programme for a ten-year-period from 2013 -2023 has set the ambitious goal of promoting nationally important landscapes providing outstanding habitats for protected plant and animal species. Meanwhile the concentration on several points of emphasis has the advantage that – in spite of a tedious process of measures in nature – considerable results can already be presented to the public. This is especially important as this Conservation Project strongly bases on the volunteer cooperation of citizens and communities.

  • Der Arabische Schneckenklee (Medicago Arabica) in Nordrhein-Westfalen
    © Bochumer Botanischer Verein e.V. Jahrb. Bochumer Bot. Ver. 8 88–95 2017 Der Arabische Schneckenklee (Medicago arabica) in Nordrhein-Westfalen ARMIN JAGEL & HUBERT SUMSER Kurzfassung Zwei Funde des Arabischen Schneckenklees (Medicago arabica) in Geseke/Kreis Soest und Köln gaben Anlass, weitere Funde aus NRW zusammenzustellen und den Status der Art im Bundesland zu diskutieren. Angaben von Botanikern des 20. Jahrhunderts legen nahe, dass die Art schon damals an Wegrändern, auf Bahngeländen, auf Geländen von Wollspinnereien und in Gärten eingebürgert war. Zwei aktuelle Vorkommen in Köln und Königs- winter werden hier als eingebürgert betrachtet. Funde im Aachener Raum schließen sich an das niederländische Areal an, wo die Art als indigen betrachtet wird, sodass sogar ein Indigenat der Art in Nordrhein-Westfalen nicht auszuschließen ist. Abstract: The Spotted medick (Medicago arabica) in North Rhine-Westphalia Two occurrences of the spotted medick (Medicago arabica) in Geseke and Cologne give reason to discuss further records and the status of this species in North Rhine-Westphalia. Data collected by botanists in the 20th century suggest that this species has already been established back then on waysides, railway properties, wool spinning mills and yards. Recent records in Cologne and Königswinter are assessed as established as well. In the Netherlands M. arabica is considered as an indigenous species and therefore the records from Aachen and its surrounding area may also be indigenous for North Rhine-Westphalia. 1 Einleitung Das ursprüngliche Areal des Arabischen Schneckenklees (Medicago arabica [L.] HUDS.) reicht von der Mittelmeerregion bis nach Westasien (HEGI 1924). Aufgrund von Verschlep- pungen kommt die Art heute in weiten Teilen der Welt vor, wie z.
