Coronilla vaginalis Lam., a Central European montane species, is reported for the first time from Poland, from the Tatra Mountains. A general map of the taxon's distribution is given, and the location of the newly recorded stand is shown on a map of Poland and the Tatra National Park. Its habitat, calcareous grassland of the order Seslerietalia, is...

The European Union is concerned about the reduction of ecosystems and flora biodiversity. Habitats linked to different hay meadows are decreasing in Europe, and this process has led to propose, throughout an Interreg SUDOE Project, a diachronic analysis of these habitats within the Natura 2000 network. To do so, three pilot areas located in the Pic...
The biomass and stored carbon in two dominant grass species (Daddha and Chepti) widely available in the Gorumara National Park was assessed during August, 2015. The average Above Ground Biomass (AGB) followed the order Daddha (15.34 Kg m-2) > Chepti (11.23 Kg m-2) in Sandy soil. In case of Sandy loam soil, the AGB followed a reverse order i.e., Che...
Sisyrinchium minus (Iridaceae) is reported new for the vascular flora of Alabama from collections made from 1987 to 2015. Several of the localities are in the Blackland Prairie district and the species is regarded as native to Alabama, disjunct from its primary range to the west.
The horological data for two new plant species of the flora of the Republic of Macedonia are presented-Ani-santha diandra (Roth) Tutin and Ochlopoa infirma (Kunth) H. Scholz (Poaceae). The species Anisantha diandra is registered in several localities in the Republic of Macedonia (Skopje, Ohrid, Tetovo), while the species Ochlopoa infir-ma was found...

In this study, the distribution of Pimpinella major (L.) Huds. (Apiaceae), which is known to be distributed in Europe and mostly in the European part of Russia, for the first time in the Eastern Anatolian region of Turkey (Bingöl) and some variations of this species arising from the changing ecology are emphasized. In particular, the leaf morphology of the taxon shows many variations; leaf structure features and photographs from basal to uppermost parts were presented. The new record, which is close to P. saxifraga, whose distribution is also known in Turkey; differs from it in that its stem is hollow and angular-deeply furrowed (sulcate). In addition, the characteristics of P. major samples collected from Bingöl were compared with the known diagnostic features of this species and some differences were emphasized.
The Tatras are the highest mountains in central Eastern Europe, divided between Poland and Slovakia. They are a biodiversity hotspot, with ~1400 vascular plant species. Botanical research in these mountains dates back to the 18th century, but the most significant progress in recognition of the flora of the Tatras occurred in the late 19th and the 20th centuries. Though many detailed botanical studies have been carried out in the Tatra Mts, every year new floristic discoveries are reported. This paper presents new localities of rare and threatened species of Tatra National Park (TNP) in Poland.
The data were collected during several research projects carried out between 2010 and 2019. We present new TNP localities of rare and threatened species as assigned in the Polish Red Data Book of Plants (Kaźmierczakowa et al. 2014), Red Data Book of the Polish Carpathians – Vascular Plants (Mirek & Piękoś-Mirkowa 2008) and Polish red list of pteridophytes and flowering plants (Kaźmierczakowa et al. 2016), and report some new species for TNP. The locality descriptions include concise topographic and habitat characteristics, as well as basic information on population size and the date and author of the records. Precise coordinates are stored in the geodatabase of vascular plants of Tatra National Park.
We present 131 localities of 42 taxa (including 8 newly discovered for Tatra National Park). Research done in recent years has contributed important information about the biodiversity of the flora of the Polish Tatras. Here we describe new localities of rare and endangered species in Poland and Carpathians, such as Carex parviflora, C. pauciflora, Cotoneaster tomentosus, Draba carinthiaca, D. dubia, Epipogium aphyllum (Fig. 2), Saussurea pygmaea, Senecio aurantiacus and Woodsia alpina (Fig. 3), including Carpathian and Tatra endemic species (Campanula serrata, Cochlearia tatrae, Poa nobilis). Extensive field studies yielded distribution and ecological data for species classified as data-deficient (DD) the Red Books and Red List (Arctium nemorosum, Poa nobilis, Potamogeton berchtoldii). Data on the vertical ranges of species have also been significantly revised, upward by 500 m (from 1280 to 1770 m a.s.l.) in the case of Cypripedium calceolus (Fig. 1); 1770 m a.s.l is now the current maximum for that orchid in the Polish Carpathians. We also found 8 new species in the local flora. Most of the newly discovered species in TNP are plants typical for lower elevations and common in Polish lowlands. This may suggest a slow shift of lowland species towards higher elevations, due to climate change.
Woodsia alpina, Draba dubia, Artemisia eriantha and Callianthemum coriandrifolium are rare and threatened alpine species in Poland. This paper describes a new locality of these plants in the Dolinka valley (part of the Dolina Kościeliska valley) in the Polish Tatra Mts. The species grow there on a steep mylonite cliff (1560 m a.s.l.) in alpine sward Festuco versicoloris-Agrostietum alpinae or in a rock crevice community representing the class Asplenietea rupestria. The population of W. alpina consisted of eight tufts, the largest of which reaches 15.0 cm × 12.8 cm; the largest leaf was 9.0 cm long and 1.8 cm wide. This is the second locality of W. alpina in Poland and the only one known in the Polish Tatras. The population of D. dubia consisted of 26 tufts with 43 generative shoots; this is its fourth known locality in Poland. Thirty-five tufts of A. eriantha were also found on the site. The plants were growing vigorously, reaching up to 30 cm high and blooming intensively. Among the observations of relatively rare species, a single vegetative shoot of C. coriandrifolium was also recorded. The locality is within the strict protection zone of Tatra National Park.
