Abstract

The checklist includes tree, shrub, dwarf shrub, woody liana and epiphyte species that occur or have occurred in Hungary except the settlements and other intensively utilised objects. 437 dendrotaxa were included and evaluated in this list. This means 281 species, 22 subspecies, 128 nothospecies and 6 nothosubspecies. Based on the indigenat, 260 native, 92 alien and 9 cryptogenic dendrotaxa live in Hungary, furthermore 54 cultivated dendrotaxa and 22 dendrotaxa with questionable occurrence. Analysing the invasive status of alien species, 19 invasive or being in the early stages of invasion, 12 naturalised and 61 casual dendrotaxa can be distinguished. According to residence time status, the number of archaeophytes is 16 and that of neophytes is 76. Of the 260 native dendrotaxa, 9 were extinct or presumably extinct. 44 dendrotaxa are considered to be proven endemic, and there are 8 subendemic. Of the 134 nothotaxa on the list, 14 are artificial and 120 are of natural origin.

Highlights

  • The purpose of species lists, flora lists, or according to current terminology standard lists and checklists, is to provide an account of the members of the flora of a given area, taking into account new knowledge of nomenclature, taxonomy, biogeography and ecology to utilise in basic and applied research, education, and practice

  • The first checklist in Hungary in the current sense, processing vascular flora and covering the entire territory of the country, was compiled by Rezső Soó (Soó 1980), which is based on his detailed, multi-volume work on the processing of Hungarian flora (Soó 1964–1973)

  • The checklist containing only dendrotaxa was first published in Hungary a good quarter of a century ago (Bartha 1992–93), which was later followed by improved versions (Bartha 1999a, b)
