Természettudomány - László Papp–Miklós Dudás: Data on Botanical Values of Central and South Nyírség and their Vicinity

URTICACEAE (!) !!! Urtica kioviensis Rogowitsch NY, Bátorliget (Fényi Forest, around Körmely) (Papp M. et ah, 1985,1986) S.cin. Since survey of 1982 large population had been formed, with several thousand individuals! BETULACEAE !, !!! Betula pendula Roth. NY. Nyírábrány (Nagyláprét and Kisláprét, beside the pasture, remain of a moorland) S.cin., (S.p.-Bet.) Not so abundant as in Bátorliget or in Sátorhegység, forced back due to mowing. Its individual number is generally double ofthat of B. pubescens. The same facts were stated in case of birch moors as follows! Álmosd-Újléta (Donatelep. Ligetpuszta) S.cin., (S.p.Bet. ) Quite many beautiful specimens on a birch moor found last year

! (We were looking for on the basis of István Sándor's publication.) ! (!) Álmosd (Daruláp) (Soó, 1937,1938) S.cin., (S.p.-Bet.) This is the last relatively big contiguous birch moor, heavily endangered (e.g. due to burning, extensive mowing, spreading of Salix cinerea.) Despite that it is on the area of the Natural Preserve of Hajdúság, active protection, probably enclosure are needed. (The same refers to every moorlands described here!) (Sípos, 1988) (!)!!! Bagamér (Bagaméri Forest, Szentannapuszta) (Máthé, 1934 Soó, 1939) Conv.-Q., Fest.-Q. Because of its consociation it is probably the remain of the birch, oak forest which was found by Imre Máthé in July, 1933 and contained Gladiolus palustris! (Máthé 1934.) The forest contains several valuable species (today it is much more dry, with about 20-25,80 years old birch trees), e.g. Digitalis grandiflora (see above), Dictamnus albus, etc. Maybe this small place and its vicinity would be worth of conservation! ! Betula pubescens Ehrh. Similar to the former species. SALICACEAE ! Salix pentandra L. NY. Nyírábrány (Nagyláprét) S.cin. 10-15 specimens on several spots. ! Salix rosmarinifolia (var.) latifolia Kern. NY., Nyírábrány (Nagyláprét) S.cin. On more places. 10-15 specimens. ! Petneháza (Daru-rét). S.cin., C.app., C.grac. In large numbers. LILIACEAE ! Veratrum album L. NY. Nyírábrány (Nagyláprét). Mol.c, C.el., C.ac.r., Fil.-Ger., S.p.-Bet., S.cin., Thel.-A. Probably the largest population of NY today, over 200 specimens. Unfortunately, as a result of being forced back under the elder trees, mowing and mycosis (Fusarium sp.) does not flower every year, fruits do not grow or become ripe. There are very large old specimens, as in Bátorliget ! On some places, especially in Fil. -Ger. it can be found with Trollius europaeus

! In our opinion active protection, enclosure are necessary! !, !!! Bánk (Bánki Forest) Fr.p.-U. drying out, today can be rather considered as transition into Conv.-Q. (8-10 specimens. Plants were found on the basis of verbal information of I. Lánszki. 17
