description
The present article contributes a list of vascular flora of the western part of Dolinsko region (NE Slovenia, Prekmurje), based mainly on new field investigations. This region is an adjunct to the 9363/3, 9363/4, 9463/2 and 9463/1 squares of the Central European flora mapping grid. It is part of thesub-Pannonic phytogeographic region with mild continental influence. 782 taxa have been listed, 21 of which have been found for the first time for the Prekmurje region, while 5 have been recorded for the first time for the sub-Pannonic region. We have confirmed the occurrence of one species that is considered to be extinct in Slovenia. Altogether, 69 taxa from the Red Data List of Pteridophyta and Spermatophyta have been found. The analysis of horological spectrum of floral elements that shows occurrence of floral elements in this region is also presented. Elements of European region prevail(50%), there is also a large number of cosmopolites (13.2%), surprisingly low is the share of Pannonic and eastern elements (2.6%). We have also analyzed the spectrum of life forms and, as expected, it reflects the largest proportion of hemicriptophyts (42.7%) and therophyts (20%), as well as a large proportion of phanerophyts (11.3%). The following rare species are further discussed: Achillea ptarmica, Arenaria leptoclados, Agrostemma githago, Alisma lanceolatum, Bromus squarrosus, Buttomus umbellatus, Callitriche cophocarpa, Capsella rubella, Carex buekii, Carex strigosa, Conium maculatum, Cyperus glomeratus, Draba muralis, Equisetum pratense, Euphorbia palustris, Fritillaria meleagris, Gagea spathacea, Galium pumilum, Gentiana pneumonanthe, Gnaphalium luteoalbum, Hemerocallis lilioasphodelus, Hottonia palustris, Iris sibirica subsp. sibirica, Lemna gibba, Leonurus cardiaca, Lythrum hyssopifolia, Montia minor, Muscari comosum,Myosotis discolor, Najas minor, Narcissus poeticus subsp. radiiflorus,Ophioglossum vulgatum, Peplis portula, Polygonatum latifolium, Potamogeton lucens, Potentilla supina, Ranunculus trichophyllus subsp. trichophyllus, Rorippa amphibia, Rumex palustris, Sagina apetala subsp. apetala, Scirpus radicans, Scutellaria hastifolia, Spergularia marina, Verbascum phoeniceum, Veronica catenata and V. scutellata.
