  • Notes to the vascular flora of Sopron Mountains and its foreground

    Records of 26 vascular plant species from the territory of Sopron Mountains (16 species) and Sopron Basin (11 species) are presented. Our field works (between 2014 and 2020) focused on some localities at the eastern and southern parts of the region. Tetragonolobus maritimus is new for the Sopron Mts, whereas Ajuga chamaepithys and Lycopsis arvensis are new for the Hungarian part of the hills. Some protected plants like Agrostemma githago, Gentianopsis ciliata and Sesleria uliginosa were rediscovered in the region. Comments about all species and their local chorology are added. A remarkable degradation process of bogs around Harka village, caused mainly by insufficient water supply of meadows, was observed. The spread of occurrences of several naturalized weed such as Aegilops cylindrica, Galium parisiense, Geranium rotundifolium, Kochia scoparia, Lepidium virginicum, Oenothera salicifolia, Sagina apetala subsp. apetala and Verbascum lychnitis was noticed. The most surprising observations refer to Galium parisiense; the spread of the species by transport had no precedent in Hungary before.

  • New occurrence of Cycloloma atriplicifolia in the Northern part of Kiskunság region (C Hungary)

    A new occurrence was found of the rare non-native species, Cycloloma atriplicifolia (Spreng.) J. M. Coult. in the Northern part of Kiskunság, Hungary on 02.07.2019 on a sandy road [N 47.297476°, E 19.382936°, KEF: 8782.1]. This is 80 km apart from the first and until now single occurrence of this species in Hungary. The authors removed the individuals, however, some seeds could remain in the soil. It is assumable, that the species was spread by wheels of the car used by the authors, as they visited the original occurrence of the species and the new one during the autumn in 2018 with the same car. This new occurrence draws attention to an important, but overlooked invasion pathway: to the invasion with cars of ecologists.

  • Reseda inodora Rchb. in the Tiszántúl region (East Hungary)

    On 14 August 2012 a small population of Reseda inodora was found in Hegyes-halom kurgan within the administrative boundaries of the town of Mindszent (Csongrád County, CEU: 9487.3). The approximately 50–100-stem-large population of the species lived on the edge of the kurgan, on the sparsely vegetated, weedy fieldmargin. On 19 July 2014 this species has turned up again in this area. In this case it was the biggest amount with some hundred stems and was located on the edge of the mound, which is in the verge of the neighbouring corn field. The Reseda inodora is a new recent protected vascular plant species within the operation area of the Körös–Maros National Park. We propose this species to be included in the regional red list in the category of „CR” (Critically endangered). Other rare weed or pioneer species (Caucalis platycarpos subsp. muricata and subsp. platycarposErodium ciconiumLappula squarrosaMelica transsilvanicaPapaver hybridum) have already been found in Hegyes-halom kurgan in the last few years. The results show the importance of kurgans not only in the conservation of natural steppe, loess wall vegetation and steppe shrub species, but in the survival of some endangered weed species as well (e.g. some rare archaeophytes).

    This paper presents new floristic data of 123 taxa from the regions of North Cserehát and Upper Bódva valley (Northern Hungary). Records were collected between 1995 and 2020. New occurrences of legally protected (e.g., Dactylorhiza incarnata, Eriophorum angustifolium, Lycopodium clavatum) and not protected but locally rare or data-deficient species (e.g., Artemisia annua, Carex remota, Cirsium pannonicum, Cyperus fuscus, Genista pilosa, Melampyrum cristatum Ranunculus flammula, Scorzonera purpurea, Silene noctiflora) are presented.

    A checklist of 115 lichen taxa was compiled from the Mecsek Mts, based on floristical records of 221 old or recently collected herbarium specimens (incl. 37 duplicates) deposited in the JPU herbarium (Pécs, Hungary). The occurrence of 22 taxa are new for the Mecsek Mts: Arthopyrenia cinereopruinosaBaeomyces rufusCandelariella reflexaCatapyrenium rufescensCladonia macilentaDimerella pinetiHypogymnia tubulosaOchrolechia arboreaPleurosticta acetabulumPseudevernia furfuraceaPsilolechia lucidaPycnothelia papillariaRinodina sophodesTomasellia arthonioidesToninia candidaTrapelia involutaVaricellaria hemisphaericaVerrucaria marmoreaV. nigrescensV. parmigeraXanthoparmelia conspersa, X. verruculifera. One legally protected lichen species (Peltigera leucophlebia) is also represented by two specimens.
