This paper analyses ecological features of bryophyte species from the territory of the Pohulyanka Forest Park in the city of Lviv, Ukraine. A total of 141 species of bryoflora were analyzed (70 recorded for the first time). In the spectrum of life forms (LF), species with the following LF prevailed in the study area: turf (61 species, 43.3%), mat (48 species, 34%). Turf, the most common life form, was detected on all types of substrates, but was most frequently found on the soil (33 species, 23.4%) and stony substrates (13 species, 9.2%). Analysis of herbarium specimens (herbariums of Ivan Franko National University of Lviv, National Museum of Natural History of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine, and the Institute of Ecology of the Carpathians of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine) and the results obtained with respect to the composition of the bryoflora suggest that since the mid-19th century, due to anthropogenic transformation of the study area, most species with LF weft (10 out of 15 species, or 66.7%) have disappeared, while the number of species with LF rough mat on the soil has increased. The apophytic fraction of bryoflora in the study area consists of 121 species (85.8%) belonging to 28 families and 66 genera, including four species in the division Marchantiophyta. In the composition of bryophyte flora, 67 species of eventapophytes were identified (47.5% of the total number of species). Dominant families are Brachytheciaceae, Mniaceae, Pottiaceae, Plagiotheciaceae, Orthotrichaceae, Polytrichaceae. Hemiapophytes comprised 24.1% (i.e. 34 species) of the total number of species. The largest number of hemiapophytes was found in the families Pottiaceae, Bryaceae, Amblystegiaceae and Orthotrichaceae. Among the spontaneophytes (20 species, 14.2%), the families Hypnaceae, Mniaceae and Polytrichaceae prevailed. Indigenophytes amounted to 20 species (14.2%). With regard to the relationship of bryophytes to light, the following groups were identified in the study area: ultraheliophytes, heliophytes, subheliophytes, hemisciophytes and sciophytes. The highest number of species was represented by subheliophytes and hemiscyophytes. Certain patterns were found in the ratio of sun-demanding species in groups of apophytes. Among the hydromorphs, the following groups were identified: ultraxerophytes (found only among hemiapophytes); xerophytes (prevailing in the group of hemiapophytes, but also found among eventapophytes); xeromesophytes, mesophytes, hygromesophytes and hygrophytes (represented in all anthropotolerant groups); hydrophytes (event- and spontan/indigenophytes).

"The (re)check of the iNaturalist data related to the Republic of Mordovia (European Russia) allowed us to find 16 vascular plant species, considered to be new taxa for the vascular plant flora of this region, in comparison to Silaeva et al. (2010). These species are Nonea rossica, Erigeron strigosus, Medicago × varia, Dianthus chinensis, Symphytum × uplandicum, Lamprocapnos spectabilis, Petunia × atkinsiana, Oenothera villosa, Parthenocissus inserta, Reynoutria × bohemica, Eschscholzia californica, Quercus rubra, Digitaria sanguinalis, Lysimachia punctata, Acer ginnala and Stachys byzantina. In addition, we present new data about the distribution of the five species (Silene wolgensis, Amaranthus cruentus, Cruciata laevipes, Euphorbia cyparissias and Achillea leptophylla) found in the Republic of Mordovia since publication of Silaeva et al. (2010). A majority of the species under discussion are alien plants arrived in Mordovia accidentally or considered as cultivated plants escaping in the wild. Taking into account the newly revealed species, the vascular plant flora of the Republic of Mordovia currently includes 1464 species. In this study, we highlight again the relevance and feasibility of the use of the iNaturalist platform, as an effective tool for the study and monitoring of regional and national biodiversity."
与Silaeva等人(2010)相比,与Mordovia共和国(欧洲俄罗斯)相关的iNaturalist数据(重新)检查使我们找到了16种维管植物物种,被认为是该地区维管植物区系的新分类群。这些树种分别是:野蔷薇、灯盏花、紫花苜蓿、石竹、梧桐树、山茱萸、矮牵牛花、野蔷薇、野蔷薇、波西米花、加利福尼亚山茱萸、红栎、马地黄、马尾松、银杏树和白蜡树。此外,我们还介绍了自Silaeva et al.(2010)发表以来在摩尔多瓦共和国发现的五种植物(Silene wolgensis, Amaranthus cruentus, Cruciata laevipes, Euphorbia cyparissias和Achillea leptophylla)分布的新数据。讨论中的大多数物种都是偶然到达莫尔多维亚的外来植物,或者被认为是逃离野外的栽培植物。考虑到新发现的物种,摩尔多瓦共和国的维管植物区系目前包括1464种。在这项研究中,我们再次强调了使用iNaturalist平台作为研究和监测区域和国家生物多样性的有效工具的相关性和可行性。”

Here we report the first find of a rare grass Festuca amethystina L. in the Transylvanian Basin. The species was found at Dealul Furcilor, a hill that is part of SCI Movilele de la Păucea near the city of Medias, in tall-forb vegetation classified as Trollio europaei-Clematidetum recti association. Using flow cytometry we detected tetraploid ploidy level of this population, corresponding to the ploidy of populations in middle altitudes of the Brasov Depression and contrasting with the diploid ploidy level of the high-montane populations in Eastern and Southern Carpathians. We show that sites of tetraploid populations share many species of dry-mesic steppe meadows and subcontinental open-canopy oak forests. Co-occurrence of F. amethystina and other species with disjunct distributions suggest relict character of this vegetation, probably representing remnants of ancient forest-steppe ecosystem.
本文报道了在特兰西瓦尼亚盆地首次发现的一种稀有禾本科植物羊茅属(Festuca amethystina L.)。该物种发现于位于Medias市附近的Dealul Furcilor山,该山是SCI Movilele de la picurucea的一部分,位于高草本植被中,分类为Trollio europaei-Clematidetum recti协会。利用流式细胞术检测了该种群的四倍体倍性水平,与布拉索夫洼地中高海拔种群的倍性相对应,并与喀尔巴阡山脉东部和南部高海拔种群的二倍体倍性水平进行了对比。研究结果表明,四倍体种群的分布地点与干中叶草原草甸和次大陆开冠栎林有许多共同的物种。紫藓属植物与其他物种共存,分布不连贯,表明该植被具有遗存特征,可能是古代森林-草原生态系统的残余。

: We have found Sphagnum colonies on 10 October 2010 near Parádfürdő village, at the entrance of Ilona valley in northeast Hungary. The species was determined as Sphagnum quinquefarium (Lindb. ex Braithw.) Warnst. (five-ranked bog-moss), a protected species (on the basis of the 66/2015. (X. 26.) FM regulations) which was not until now described in the area of the Mátra Mountains. This species became known only from a few localities in Hungary, but was more frequent on the edge of the Carpathian Basin and in part of the outside border of our country. We collected the relevant data for the S. quinquefarium from the largest Herbarium database in Hungary and the countries of the Carpathian Basin and used the available botanical literature database. The peat moss species studied is very common in the High Tatras of Slovakia and throughout the Carpathian Mountains of Romania. This present paper summarises the recent distributional knowledge about S. quinquefarium distribution in the Carpathian Basin, outside of Hungary, on the basis of herbarium and literature data.

The CarHAB project, funded by the French Ministry of Environment, was set up to map the vegetation all over the French territory. In this objective, both analytical (plot) releves and synreleves were carried out. Based on the case study of low mountain habitats in the “chaine des Puys” (Massif central, France), this paper presents i) the methodology developed to carry out vegetation releves at the landscape scale and ii) the database designed to store and fit synreleves, as part of the national VegFrance database. This paper presents the structure of the “Paysage” database, the metadata collected together with plants communities in the synreleves (and geosynreleves), the method to record the synreleves and how they are managed for the mapping of series and geoseries. The interpretation of the dataset regarding anthropic pressure on this landscape will be suggested.

: The Carpathian stenoendemic species Erysimum hungaricum Zapał. (Brassicaceae) had not been observed at its only known locality in the Maramureş Mts in Romania for more than 80 years. Research from June 2018 has confirmed its presence on the southern slope of Mt. Lostun Mic (1595 m). Compared to the past, the number of micro-locati o ns was reduced to a single one of approximately 200 m 2 . In the remaining population, approximately 100 flowering individuals, we made a phytocoenological relevé and determined the chemical properties of the soil (pH H2O = 6.46; pH KCl = 6.2; carbonate content = 8.0 g.kg -1 ; nitrogen content = 10.99 g.kg -1 ; phosphorus content = 19.57 mg.kg -1 ). In the plant community, succession occurs from the original Festucetum saxatilis Domin 1933 to a tall-herb vegetation of the order Adenostyletalia alliariae Br.-Bl. 1931 and a growth of Picea abies . The presence of the species in different vegetation units and the comparison of older and actual soil characteristics point to its wider tolerance of the characteristics of the site. Thus, the causes of the extraordinary rarity of the species are not yet clear. Based on the IUCN sozological evaluation, the species was categorised as Critically Endangered (CR) according to criteria B2ab(ii,iv).

: We report and compare the foredune habitats of some areas located along the coasts of Tuscany (It) and Dobrogea (Ro, Bu), focusing on the floristic and phytocoenotic features, through phytosociological surveys carried out along the two coasts, very different from the biogeographical point of view. Both coasts are about 300 km long and have approximately 200 km of sandy beaches. Among dune habitats ( sensu Directive 92/43/EEC) only those of the foredunes (upper beach and mobile dunes) seemed to be shared. The comparison of phytosociological relevés performed in the two areas and concerning these foredune habitats, have highlighted: a) a high floristic and phytocoenotic diversity even in the same habitats of the two different sandy coasts; b) a tendency for the floristic differences to increase from ephemeral dune habitats (annual vegetation of drift lines) to the inner dunes (white dunes); c) diagnostic species of habitats are shared significantly only for habitat 1210.

: The overall range pattern of Hammarbya paludosa in Romania is problematic and poorly understood. Here we have compiled an updated distribution for the species in Romania, adding a new locality in the South-Eastern Carpathians, in a transitional bog of the Gutâi Mts (Eastern Carpathians). The species had previously been reported from Romania but we found only a single item of evidence of the plant in a public herbarium (a specimen collected more than a half century ago near Avrig, with no earlier data recorded from that location, and was lodged incorrectly under Liparis loeselii ), although it is listed in most important checklists of the Romanian flora as certainly present in Romania. The population discovered, consisting of about 30 individuals of H. paludosa , was spread over an an area of ca. 200 m 2 and grew in an Oxycocco-Sphagnetea community. In Romania the species is highly threatened due to its extreme rarity and the relatively intensive grazing in the area where it occurs.

: In this paper we present the flora of Bili Skeli (White Cliffs) Massif. This site is the southernmost group of limestone cliffs in the Ukrainian Carpathians, situated in the montane forest belt in the headwaters of the Bilyi Cheremosh River (Verkhovynskyi National Nature Park, the Chyvchyny Mts.). These cliffs harbour rare calcareous saxicolous species, e.g. Arabis hornungiana, Carduus defloratus subsp. glaucus, Cystopteris alpina, Epipactis atrorubens , E. helleborine , Goodyera repens, Saussurea discolor, Saxifraga luteoviridis and Thymus pulcherrimus , many of them included in the Red Data Book of Ukraine (2009). Their occurrence was analysed in their ecological and conservation context. A map of the site is provided as well as geographical coordinates of the major cliffs. The occurrence of obligatory calcicole rare species is determined by the limestone bedrock, which is infrequent in the Ukrainian Carpathians. The rarity of the habitat type makes the site one of the few disjunct environmental islands of calcareous flora in the region. Some of the listed species are narrow-range and occur at the edge of their geographical distribution. Moreover, Saussurea discolor is confined to the lowermost limit of its altitudinal range. Such marginality makes the area remarkable in biogeographical and conservation terms. It was revealed that a population of another rare species, Saxifraga aizoides , has possibly become extinct at this site. However, the confirmed occurrence of Saussurea discolor makes the Bili Skeli cliffs the second (in addition to Chonyi Dil Mt.) known locality of that species in the Ukrainian Carpathians.
