Phytosociological analysis of Gladiolus palustris sites in northwestern, western and southwestern SloveniaDakskobler, Igor (Avtor) Seliškar, Andrej (Avtor) Vreš, Branko (Avtor) Gladiolus palustrisG. illyricusphytosociologysyntaxonomyNatura 2000nature conservationSloveniaWith a phytosociological analysis of more than 200 relevés on more than 25 localities with Gladiolus palustrisand (or) G. illyricusin western and southwestern Slovenia we identified more than 15 communities of association rank that belong to at least eight vegetation alliances and five classes. We determined that these two species can grow on the same localities and sites, but Gladiolus palustrisflowers at least 14 days after G. illyricus. Another reliable distinguishing characteristic is the fibrous tunic covering the corm. Gladiolus palustris is threatened in most of the examined localities, except for the Banjšice Plateau and the Slavnik range in Čičarija, but the current nature conservation policy in Slovenia does not provide for its preservation.20212026-01-14 12:30:35Članek v reviji25253UDK: 581.9ISSN pri članku: 1855-7996DOI: 10.3986/fbg0082COBISS_ID: 70889987sl
