Németh, Ferenc: The vascular flora and vegetation on the Szabadszállás-Fülöpszállás territory of the Kiskunság National Park (KNP), I.
in the ratio of neutral species is found. There is an increase in categories BC, A, AB too. It shows obviously the sodic character of the area, but the high ratio of neutral and BC species cannot be sufficiently interpreted. The comparison on the basis of coenological samplings is more interesting (columns 1 and 3 of Table 4 and column 2 in Table 5). There is a strong tendency of sodification to the detriment of marshy and steppic associations. It is shown that the marshy species are much less affected the sodification, than the steppic ones (in group B the lack is greater, than in C, in the group AB the increase is smaller, than in AC). In this comparison the weedgrowing is more explicit. These tendencies are documented by the comparison of two distributions of the Szabadszállás flora too (column 2, 3 in Table 4, column 3 in Table 5). Under the local conditions a considerable part of species with different coenological characters are forced into sodic and transitional associations. The tendency for turning into weed appears too. LIFE-FORM SPECTRUM- Considering the distribution of RAUNKIAER's life-forms in the Hungarian (SOÓ 1. c. ) and Szabadszállás flora (Table 6) it is remarkable the lack of trees and shrubs and a high ratio of therophyta because of the extreme ecological conditions and degradation of the natural vegetation.
