Abstract

In the second part of this article series, which provides data contributing to the knowledge of native plant species of the Pannonian Ecoregion, we address rare species – mostly legally protected in Hungary – belonging to the families Cephaloziaceae, Athyriaceae, Dryopteridaceae, Cystopteridaceae, Thelypteridaceae, Brassicaceae, Rosaceae, Elatinaceae, Apiaceae, Orobanchaceae, Liliaceae, and Orchi­da­ceae. We report the current occurrence of Nowellia curvifolia in the Sub-Pannonian region of Slove­nia. We present an exceptionally species-rich habitat for ferns (Athyrium filix-femina, Dryopteris carthu­siana, D. dilatata, D. filix-mas, Gymnocarpium dryopteris, Polystichum aculeatum) from the ‘Borsodi ártér’ micro­region. We provide data on the stands of Thelypteris palustris observed along the main irrigation canals of ‘Tiszántúl’ region. We publish new occurrence records contributing to the Hungari­an distribution of Aethionema saxatile, Crataegus nigra, Elatine hungarica, Sium sisarum, Orobanche hederae, Himantoglos­sum adriaticum, Epipactis placentina, E. exilis, E. pseudopurpurata, and E. micro­phylla, as well as to the appearance of Helosciadium repens in urbanized environment. Gagea spathacea and G. bohemica are newly recorded for the Zemplén Mts; Epipactis nordeniorum and Epipogium aphyl­lum are new for the flora of the Mátra Mts; and Himantoglossum calcaratum is newly recorded for Hun­gary. We also present spontaneous establishment of several orchid species in the courtyard of a sec­ondary school in Veszprém. Additionally, we report on the pollinating insects observed on the flowers of Sternbergia colchiciflora. Two previously misreported records are also corrected.
