Abstract

The paper presents some preliminary results of the monitoring ofTulipa biebersteinianaSchult. et Schult. fil. plants (category of rare and endangered plant species). By summarizing the available sources of science literature we have compiled a general description of morphological and bio-ecological species characteristics. The results of the field study fulfilled in 20122015 in two population groups of the Krasnosamarsky forestry (Samara region) were used to determine morphometric parameters ofTulipa biebersteinianaplants. The data also helped us to assess the variability level and to make a comparison with plant quantitative traits given in the literature. It was found that the shoot length ofTulipa biebersteinianaplants varied in the range of 23 50 cm, the maximum average length of 40 cm are presented in plants of population group number two.The distribution of shoot length among individuals of the second population group is more stable, changes depending on the year of vegetation are poorly expressed.The lengths of shoots inside the range specified for the various parts of the area in the literature with a significant proportion of high plants in the population is studied. This may be a sign of good growth conditions forFritillaria ruthenicathat gives an opportunity to the plant conservation in natural communities in the absence of limiting anthropogenic factors.

Highlights

Raccoon dog is an invasive species which has successfully expanded on the new territory in the Samara region
The paper contains information on the GPS-mapping of burrows and temporary shelters which have been found in the southern part of the protected area of the national park «Samarskaya Luka» during 2002–2015
Further spread of the population depends on the places suitable for temporary shelters and burrows, presence of water reservoirs areas where raccoon dogs may find food, as well as minimized influence of disturbing factor

Summary

Introduction

К ОЦЕНКЕ БИОЭКОЛОГИЧЕСКИХ ОСОБЕННОСТЕЙ РАСТЕНИЙ ТЮЛЬПАНА БИБЕРШТЕЙНА В статье представлены результаты мониторинга растений тюльпана Биберштейна Что длина побегов у растений тюльпана Биберштейна варьирует в промежутке значений от 23 см до 50 см, максимальная средняя длина в 40 см представлена у растений второй популяционной группы. На данный момент во флоре области насчитывается 258 редких и исчезающих видов растений [2], наша статья посвящена рассмотрению биоэкологических особенностей тюльпана Биберштейна Tulipa biebersteiniana Schult.
