Abstract
The article demonstrates the results of studies about species composition of lichens, fungi, mosses and higher vascular plants found in the ribbon pine forests in the Minusinsk town and its vicinity. The article based on the original authors’ herbaria. 62 basidial macromycetes, 80 lichens and 210 species of the higher vascular plants were found in the studied area. The plant communities and their dominant species were studied.
Highlights
The town of Minusinsk is an urban district, located in the southern part of the Krasnoyarsk Territory, in the center of the vast forest-steppe Minusinsk Hollow, on the right bank of the Yenisei River [1].Every year the territory of the town of Minusinsk and its vicinity gets more and more exposed to anthropogenic influence
Meadow and steppe communities during the vegetation period are often serves as pastures and places for the wild medicinal plants gathering. These and other factors lead to the changes in the natural flora and vegetation
Species were determined with the help of "Identification Guide to the Plants of the South of the Krasnoyarsk Territory" [2], "Flora of Siberia" [3], "Identification Guide to Lichens of the USSR" [4], "Identification Guide to Lichens of Russia" [5], "Nordic Lichen Flora" [6], "Flora of Fungi of Ukraine" [7, 8], "Identification Guide to Fungi of Russia" [9], «Funga Nordica» [10], «Farbatlas der Basidiomyceten Colour Atlas of Basidiomycetes» [11]
Summary
The town of Minusinsk is an urban district, located in the southern part of the Krasnoyarsk Territory, in the center of the vast forest-steppe Minusinsk Hollow, on the right bank of the Yenisei River [1]. Every year the territory of the town of Minusinsk and its vicinity gets more and more exposed to anthropogenic influence. Meadow and steppe communities during the vegetation period are often serves as pastures and places for the wild medicinal plants gathering. These and other factors lead to the changes in the natural flora and vegetation. It becomes necessary to study species composition of lichens, fungi, and higher vascular plants in the typical plant communities of the Minusinsk town and its vicinity
