This paper presents results of fi eld studies in historical former manor parks of the Drawsko Lakeland which were made during two vegetation seasons, in 2011 and 2012. The studies covered eight monumental former manor parks located in fi ve communes (Barwice commune – Stary Chwalim, Brzeźno commune – Wilczkowo, Czaplinek commune – Łazice, Siemczyno, Połczyn Zdrój commune – Kołacz, Łęgi, Słowianki, Złocieniec commune – Kosobudy). The study aimed at presenting geographical-historical status in Poland of the chosen former manor parks of the Drawsko Lakeland and especially taking into consideration the most precious specimen of dendrofl ora. A lot of old trees, trees alleys, trees lines, foreign species and protected trees were found on the parks’ areas. 507 species were found, including 171 synanthropic spontaneophytes (apophytes), 115 non-synanthropic spontaneophytes, 23 half-synanthropic spontaneophytes, 48 archeophytes, 41 kenophytes and 106 diaphytes. 153 taxa were found among dendric flora and 354 taxa of herbal flora. From the rare herbaceous plants in the scale of the region of protected ones of the analysed parks there are: Achillea ptarmica, Anemone ranunculoides, Asarum europaea, Convallaria majalis, Hippophaë rhamnoides, Liriodendron tulipifera, Lonicera periclymenum, Phellodendron amurense, Platanthera bifolia, Polypodium vulgare, Ptelea trifoliata, Taxus baccata, Thujopsis dolabrata, Viburnum opulus.
The spread of species far from their native range is an important component of global changes. Investigating the ability of alien plants to invade different habitats is one of the most important approaches in the analysis of biological invasion mechanisms. The study was based on floristic research carried out in 1998–2002 in the north-western part of Poland. The habitats sampled were classified according to the EUNIS classification. A dataset of 2638 naturalized neophyte records was compiled based on a total of 2132 floristic lists. Species entries were supplemented with data on taxonomic position (family), origin, frequency, life form and number of habitats a particular species colonises. Ordination analyses showed the level of disturbance in individual habitats to be important in species-habitats relationships. Some of the species (e.g. Chamomilla suaveolens, Galinsoga parviflora, Veronica persica) occurred mainly in man-made, heavily disturbed habitats, while others (e.g. Impatiens parviflora, Padus serotina, Quercus rubra) were present primarily in natural habitats, less affected by humans. The species with the broadest habitat ranges identified included, i.a. Conyza canadensis, Impatiens parviflora, Epilobium ciliatum, and Oxalis fontana. Most of them, however, had different “core” habitats. Some species, e.g. Juncus tenuis, Elodea canadensis, Veronica persica were associated with one or a few habitats. The ability of species to invade numerous habitat types did not depend on their invasive status. The most successful aliens are those which spread dynamically along forest paths as well as those penetrating forest communities. The phytocoenotic role of each naturalized neophyte in plant communities requires a detailed study. Each individual habitat supports well-established alien species whose traits fit its characteristics and the disturbance intensity. Analysis of alien species traits, local distribution, habitat preferences and range makes it possible to reliably assess potentially successful invaders.
The article presents the results of floristic investigations conducted in 2012–2014 in the Natura 2000 area “Łąki nad Wojkówką” (PLH 180051) situated in the Dynowskie Foothills. The area was established with the aim of conservation of thermophilic meadow complexes with fragments of xerothermic grasslands, which are extremely rare in the Carpathians. The vascular flora comprises 252 species from 49 families and 166 genera. Native spontaneophytes (45.7%) and apophytes (44.8%) dominated over anthropophytes (9.5%), and perennial species (85.3%) dominated over short-lived (14.7%) species. Thermophilic species of dry grasslands and scrubs were represented by the classes Festuco-Brometea, Trifolio-Geranietea, and Rhamno-Prunetea. Fresh meadow plants from the class Molinio-Arrhenatheretea were most frequently noted in the flora composition, while ruderal species from the class Artemisietea vulgaris had a substantial share. The occurrence of protected species e.g. Centaurium erythraea, Dianthus armeria, and Gentiana cruciata should also be noted.
This paper presents the results of floristic studies conducted in the years 2003 – 2005 within the area of the Polesie National Park. The aim of the research was to compare the flora of initial succession stages in drainage ditches with the flora of neighbouring forest areas undergoing transformation as a result of drainage. Floristic lists were made in four designated study areas as well as in forest phytocoenoses. The results of field investigations were subjected to analysis with regard to the systematic affinity of the flora and proportions of plant life-forms as well as of historical-geographical groups and range groups. In the species composition of the studied drainage ditches hemicryptophytes were the dominant group of plant higher life-forms, whereas in the neighbouring communities the flora was represented by both hemicryptophytes and megaphanerophytes. In historical and geographical terms, the flora of drainage ditches and neighbouring communities represents definitely the group of spontaneophytes. Anthropogenic habitats, which developed within the drainage ditches, were colonised by native flora species characteristic for the Polesie National Park area.
The paper presents the actual vascular flora of the “Dębowiec” nature reserve identifi ed in 2004-2009 and supplemented on the basis of literature data. The vascular flora consists of 306 vascular species, including the following mountain species: Abies alba, Acer pseudoplatanus, Anthriscus nitida, Chaerophyllum hirsutum, Huperzia selago, Polygonatum vericillatum, Ribes alpinum, Sambucus racemosa and Valeriana sambucifolia. It must be stressed that there are 29 rare species in the regional scale of Central Poland.
The aim of the present study was to describe the distribution of xerothermic species of vascular plants in the lower San River valley and the relationship between their density and the intensity of selected environmental (natural and anthropogenic) factors. Xerothermic species occurred more frequently in the present valley floor compared to the glacial terrace. Within the present valley, the highest density was observed in the floodplain. The examined species also occurred more often on steep slopes of the valley, at the margins of the present valley terraces, and in the area of occurrence of aeolian sands. Moreover, a positive correlation has been found between the number of xerothermic species and the area of polyhemeroby ecosystems. The distribution of xero- and thermophilous species is determined by natural edaphic and geomorphological factors as well as anthropogenic ones (land use, lowering of the groundwater level as a result of river regulation).
The aim of the study was to conduct an environmental evaluation of 6 selected sections of the improved Mietiułka River, which included an inventory and analysis of the vascular flora associated directly with this watercourse. The results of the study have shown that the flora of the study area is diverse in taxonomic, syntaxonomic and ecological terms, and that it comprises both typical aquatic plants and species characteristic of the habitats surrounding the river. In the flora found in the study sectors, a total of 114 vascular plant species was identified, which come from 42 botanical families, 15 syntaxonomic classes and belong to different ecological groups. Hemicryptophytes, spontaneophytes, species neutral to continentality as well as species included in the phytochorion with boreal elements: Euro-Siberian subelement, were clearly predominant in the species composition of the flora of all the study sectors. The macrophytes commonly found in Poland had the largest proportion. One species with a small number of stands in the country – water dropwort (Oenanthe fistulosa) – as well as two species threatened with extinction, Sagittaria sagittifolia and Hypochoeris glabra, were recorded.
The dam construction and water impoundment have extensively altered flow regime and riparian ecosystems. However, the effect of long-term winter flooding of reservoir on plants of drawdown area is poorly known. The Three Gorges Dam in China, the largest dam in the world, created a drawdown area of 348.93 km2 between 145 m and 175 m above sea level around its reservoir. The drawdown area was submerged for more than half year in winter and exposed in summer. In the summer of 2009, the vegetation of fourteen sites in the drawdown area was investigated to determine the impact of winter flooding on vascular flora and to explore flood-tolerant species for vegetation reconstruction. One hundred and seventy five species of 58 families were recorded in present work,which indicated that 55% of vascular flora species disappear or became rare. The number of perennial species decreased to 50%. Therophytes, with 87 taxa, were the dominant life form. Strictly aquatic species were rather scarce for summer drought. Mean vegetation cover in the drawdown area was more than 70%. Species richness and vegetation cover along the elevation gradient exhibited a negative pattern correlated with flooding duration. The remarkable reduction of plant richness, variation of life form composition and alternation of dominant species indicated the strong influence of long-term winter flooding on vascular flora. Cynodon dactylon and Cyperus rotundus was highly resistant to long-term winter flooding and summer drought. Eight hardwoods (Vitex negundo, Morus alba, Sapium sebiferum, Glochidion puberum, Rhus chinensis, Melia azedarach, Pterocarya stenoptera and Trema levigata) exhibited high tolerance to winter flooding and may be potential candidates for vegetation restoration.
This paper presents the results of a fl oristic study conducted in the years 2003 – 2005 within the area of the Polesie National Park and its protective zone. Floristic inventories were carried out in twelve 100-metre-long sections of the drainage ditches and adjacent phytocoenoses and based on them offi ce analyses of the fl ora were performed. The aim of the study was to determine the share of species with special natural values in the drainage ditches, taking into account the occurrence of legally protected, rare and endangered taxa at the regional level, in Poland and in Europe. The share of these species was also compared with the richness of special concern plants noted in the phytocoenoses adjacent to the investigated ditches. Based on the fl oristic composition, an analysis was made of the occurrence of taxa whose number of stands shows a declining trend compared to the Polish fl ora. The number of vascular plant species found in the ditches and in their vicinity was similar, but the low values of the similarity index suggest differences in the species composition of these habitats, which results in greater species diversity. The presence of special concern plants in the drainage ditches suggests that they are valuable habitats for the Polesie National Park. They create niches for rare, protected and endangered species.
Strong and long-lasting human activity in most European lowland river valleys results in narrowing the area of inudated ecosystems from wide floodplains to the space between embankments. This concerns especially regulation and drainage works, as well as hydrotechnical infrastructure construciton. The Warta Mouth National Park is a suitable region for inudated habitats research – over 5000 hectars of flood reservoir gathers here excess of water every year. It is one of the biggest flooded area in this part of Europe. The aim of this study was the analysis of flora changes over the dozen of years. The two inudated surfaces, different in respect of land use, were compared. Results indicate significant influence of land use on flora composition.
The paper presents a systematic list of vascular plant species recorded at 78 cemeteries in the Roztocze region and surrounding areas. 543 species belonging to 75 families were recorded. Of these, 99 foreign and 43 native species were cultivated. 41 species introduced by humans to cemeteries can be regarded as the so-called established cemetery species. These species, once planted on graves, continue to grow or even spread after people stopped cultivating them.
In the period 2007-2009, floristic, habitat and physico- chemical analysis was made of the hydraulically improved surrounding ditch of Lake Bikcze in the Łęczna-Włodawa Lakeland. Hemicryptophytes, with a large proportion of geophytes as well as hydrophytes and helophytes, were the main component of the flora of the studied section of the transformed Piwonia River channel. In terms of historical-geographical classification, spontaneophytes were predominant, and apophytes among them, whereas anthropophytes were poorly represented, which was confirmed by the correspondingly high values of the synanthropization and apophytization indices (> 50%) as well as the low value of the anthropophytization index (approx. 2%). In the aspect of the range of occurrence, Euro-Siberian and cosmopolitan species were predominant, which are classified in terms of the indicator values as hygrophilous plants, neutral to continentality, living in moderately cool or moderately warm climatic conditions, characterized by a wide range of tolerance to the trophic state index and to soil acidity. An analysis of the values of the basic physico-chemical factors of the stagnant water in the surrounding ditch showed variations in the value of pH, electrolytic conductivity and the value of the concentration of organic and ammonium nitrogen as well as of organic phosphorus and phosphates. In spite of the anthropogenic nature of the studied watercourse, the qualitative and quantitative proportions of the flora species indicated the natural state of the flora based on the native vegetation, characteristic of the study area.
Research was carried out on the importance of organic farming practices for maintaining agricultural landscape complexity with consequent benefits for spontaneous vascular flora biodiversity. An agricultural landscape unit (75 ha) composed of extensively used arable lands and grasslands and small remnant natural habitats, occurring among fields or in field verges in the West Pomerania region, Poland, was investigated. Spontaneous vascular flora of extensively farmed landscape was mapped using the topographic method. The examined flora was analyzed in terms of plant species richness and diversity. The following attributes of flora were considered: taxonomic and syntaxonomic diversity, and the share of geographical and geographical–historical elements, Raunkiaer’s life forms, archaeophytes, kenophytes, plants with conservation status and threatened in the Polish regions or countries of the European Union, and ancient woodland plant species indicators. Spontaneous vascular flora included 338 species / 75 ha and represented rich taxonomic diversity: 213 genera, 71 families and 48 orders. The phytocoenoses included 52 plant associations from 17 classes, 23 orders, and 32 alliances of the phytosociological system, including 6 segetal synanthropic communities.
The authors describe the locality of a so far in Poland unknown species Coleanthus subtilis. It was discovered on the Oleśnica Plateau near Wroclaw. This grass occurs on a surface of ca. 15 ha, round muddy shores of fishponds. The large stand makes the impression to be at least 50-year old. Together with the grass of our interest there grow also other, not frequent to day, species like Veronica peregrina, Myosurus minimus and Limosella aquatica. The traditional management of fishponds makes the basis of maintenance of all the species and the whole community. The constant filling with water of the reservoirs and application of fertilisers threatens the existence of the whole rare and interesting ecosystem.
