The interspecific relations that have been previously observed within the Stipa dasyphylla group are intricate and require further clarification. aim of this study was to determine whether specimens from Serbia deserve a separate taxonomic status. Various "dasyphyllous" species (those with hairy adaxial leaves) Balkan Peninsula were collected analysed using morphological methods microscopic observations macro- micro-ornamentation their leaves lemmas. Based on analyses 160 individuals 17...
Wetland ecosystems are important habitats for the growth and survival of numerous terrestrial orchids in Europe. This study reviews current knowledge on wetland vegetation Central Balkans. The orchid flora was analyzed from taxonomic, phytogeographical, ecological conservation aspects. most taxa include two Balkan endemics (Dactylorhiza cordigera subsp. bosniaca D. kalopissi macedonica) three subendemics Balkans Carpathians cordigera, maculata transsilvanica Gymnadenia frivaldii), as well a...
This paper presents new records and noteworthy data on the following taxa in SE Europe adjacent regions: diatom alga Cylindrotheca gracilis, fungi Laccaria macrocystidiata, liverworts Riccia canaliculata, cavernosa, frostii, mosses Dicranum viride, monocots Arundo donax, Cephalanthera rubra, Epipactis palustris, Sternbergia colchiciflora dicots Aconitum anthora Cephalaria pastricensis are given within regions.
Abstract The aim of this paper was firstly to describe the ecological and geographical differentiation four maple species ( Acer spp.) in Serbia Kosovo based on floristic phytocoenological data, secondly, model their distributions order predict which areas can be expected in. intention also compare resulting prediction maps with available field records see whether there are any differences between actual predicted ranges. data set included 1979 each record accompanied by geographic...
This paper presents new records and noteworthy data on the following taxa in SE Europe adjacent regions: diatom alga Eunotia boreoalpina; saprotrophic fungus Clitocybe truncicola; liverwort Haplomitrium hookeri; moss Leptodon smithii: monocots Epipactis purpurata, Stipa tirsa, Typha laxmannii T. shuttleworthii; dicots Krascheninnikovia ceratoides, Polygonum albanicum Sorbus latifolia.
Abstract Phytosociological characteristics of grassland communities above serpentines (order Halacsyetalia sendtneri H. Ritter-Studnčka 1970) in Serbia, are analyzed according to Braun-Blanquet methodology. In order detect the basic floristic differentiation ordinary correspondence analysiswas applied. Cluster also performed see structure and separation based on composition. determine diagnostic species, fidelity indices with presence/ absence data size all groups standardized equal were...
The paper propose nine new nomenclature combinations and indicate eight synonyms. There are 12 taxa (species subspecies) of vascular flora which for the Serbia (of autochthonous three 88 N iketić, M. etal. : Annotated Checklist Vascular Flora II allochtonous plants). An old or unreliable literature records one allochthonous plant in has been confirmed. Eight a novelty proper Serbia, Vojvodina, Kosovo Metohija, plants, presence certain administrative units proved. last part contains...
This paper presents new records and noteworthy data on the following taxa in SE Europe adjacent regions: red algae Hildenbrandia rivularis, saprotrophic fungus Cryptomarasmius corbariensis, lichenised fungi Lecanora stenotropa, Micarea misella Sticta sylvatica, liverworts Fossombronia caespitiformis Peltolepis quadrata, mosses Dicranoweisia cirrata Fissidens exilis, horsetail Equisetum ? moorei, gymnosperm Juniperus virginiana, monocots Galanthus reginae-olgae subsp. vernalis Spiranthes...
Monitoring the presence of invasive species in natural wetlands is crucial for numerous reasons, including their negative impact on biodiversity, conservation and ecosystem services provided by these important fragile areas. The aim this paper was to investigate distribution highly liana Echinocystis lobata (wild cucumber), determine its coenological relations with native plant Ramsar sites southern part Pannonian Plain (the southeastern Central Europe, northern Serbia). We conducted...
Abstract The Balkan Peninsula has rich biodiversity with a large number of endemic species; therefore, part its territory been recognized as World Biodiversity Hotspot. Despite nature conservation efforts and development networks in countries the region, anthropogenic influence on natural semi ecosystems is increasing. Moreover, new types disturbance pollution arise, one more recent being artificial light at night (ALAN) which serious consequences reproduction, navigation, foraging, habitat...
Stipa crassiculmis subsp. picentina Martinovský, Moraldo & Caputo (Poaceae, Pooideae, Stipae) was found for the first time in Balkan Peninsula. It recorded northern part of Republic Macedonia, Pčinja River gorge (Badar Gorge), between Veles and Katlanovo on ultramafic substrates. To date, S. known only Italy where it occurs Lombardy Campania administrative regions. This record Peninsula is a new example Amphi-Adriatic Balkan-Apennine disjunction. In this paper, morphological anatomical...
The present paper gives new records of the following taxa in SE Europe and adjacent regions, together with significant data pertaining to them: pathogenic fungus Arthrocladiella mougeotii; liverwort Riccia frostii; mosses Campylopus fragilis, C. introflexus Tomentypnum nitens; fern Allosorus persicus; monocots Allium atropurpureum Sisyrinchium montanum; dicots Calluna vulgaris Santolina chamaecyparissus.
This paper presents new records and noteworthy data on the following taxa in SE Europe adjacent regions: red algae Sheathia confusa, parasitic fungus Anthracoidea caryophylleae, mycorrhizal fugus Hydnellum caeruleum, bryoparasitic Octospora erzbergeri, liverwort Cephaloziella baumgartneri, mosses Hamatocaulis vernicosus, Streblotrichum convolutum var. commutatum Ulota crispula, monocots Ophrys bertolonii subsp. bertolonii, scolopax cornuta Spiranthes spiralis dicots Androsace hedraeantha,...
Despite the fact that dry grassland vegetation on ultramafics has been object of continuous research in previous centuries, there remains a knowledge gap regard to initial stages ultramafic substrates. The Stipa-dominated grasslands Serbia and Kosovo representing various phases overgrowth rocks were present study. A total 213 relev?s made different steppe-like Stipa species-dominated including Kosovo, then analysed context Balkan Festuco-Brometea class. For cluster analyses, new order...
This paper represents the fourth part of inventory flora Serbia (Niketić et al. 2018, 2020, 2021), which contains nomenclatural, taxonomic and floristic notes related to taxa from Magnoliopsida group. At same time, this contribution is basis for publication subsequent volumes An annotated checklist vascular in order supplement data on plants our country.
Eryngium palmatum was described by Roberto de Visiani and Josif Pančić in Plantae serbicae rariores aut novae (1870: 20). Wörz (2010) stated that, although the original description is from 1870, recorded E. tricuspidatum Linnaeus (1753: 8) eleven years earlier with same localities that he cited protologue for palmatum. In fact, reported already 1856: 520, following localities: “bei Ravanita, Sv. Petka im Cupriaer, Banja Aleksinacer, Ugljarevo Kragujevacer“. Describing new species all...
Abstract Phytosociological and numerical analyses of grasslands dominated by Sesleria juncifolia s.l. in Serbia were performed order to resolve their syntaxonomy nomenclature. Twelve releves sampled on Mt. Mučanj (western Serbia), which then compared with similar from other parts the Balkan Peninsula means analyses. The classified using cluster analysis, while ordination was conducted Detrended Correspondence Analysis (DCA). results suggest occurrence two floristically well defined Dinaric...
