Abstract. Extended parts of Krousia (Mt Disoro and Mt Mavrovouni) and Belles Mts (NE Greece) are protected by international and national conventions and laws (Ramsar Convention, Natura 2000 Network). The flora of Krousia Mts has been partly investigated, while very few floristic records exist for Mt Belles. The investigated area includes pure and mixed stands of Salix, Platanus, Alnus, Paliurus, Carpinus, Ostrya, Quercus, Castanea, Tilia, Fagus, and Abies. The present paper reports the flora of forest and shrubland habitats of the investigated area. The floristic catalogue is based on the plant species recorded in 431 relevés, as well as on a supplementary floristic inventory. For each taxon information is given about its spatial distribution, constancy and the habitat type from which it was collected. The floristic catalogue reports a total of 483 taxa. Furthermore, 439 taxa were recorded in Belles (405 new records) and 429 (five new records) in Krousia Mts (367 in Disoro and 373 in Mavrovouni).

Key words: Belles, floristic catalogue, Krousia, NE Greece, vegetation types

Introduction

Floristic information on Krousia Mts can be found in several publications (Gamisans & Hebrard 1980; Strid 1986; Strid & Tan 1991; Athanasiadis & al. 1993; Theodoropoulos & al. 1995; Babalonas 1995; Fotiadis & Athanasiadis 2003). On the contrary, Mt Belles could be regarded as floristically unexplored, since only few published data are available (Zagan-iaris 1938, 1939,1940; Strid 1986; Strid & Tan 1991). In addition to this, some floristic data can be re-trieved from the maps given in Flora Hellenica (Strid & Tan 1997, 2002). However, the data presented by the above-mentioned works about these two moun-tains are only partly informative regarding the type of habitat from which the plant specimens were col-lected.

Phytosociological studies can elucidate the vegeta-tion structure and provide ecological data. Thus a flo-ristic inventory based on phytosociological research is

provided, with important data about the species dis-tribution in different vegetation units and habitats (Spribille & al. 2001), which can further improve the management of e.g. important medicinal or endan-gered plant species. Floristic inventories of this type, especially those concerning forests and shrublands, are rather limited in Greece (e.g. Eleftheriadou 1992; Tsiripidis & Athanasiadis 2003).

This paper is aiming to present: 1) the forests and shrublands flora of Krousia and Belles region and 2) the ecological and environmental preference of each taxon. On this basis we have approached the plant va-riety and floristic diversification of different types of vegetation and, including ecological data, attempt-ed to evaluate the habitats. These investigations offer important knowledge in managing: from the protec-tion of different types of vegetation with special flo-ra composition to protection of species by means of their habitats, as well as better exploitation of forest products.

Investigated area

Krousia and Belles Mts are located in Central Mac-edonia (NE Greece). Krousia, which extends into the Greek territory, comprises two small mountains (Disoro and Mavrovouni), while Belles runs in east-west direction along the border of Greece, Bulgaria and F.Y.R.O.M. Krousia are located south of the val-ley that binds lake Kerkini and lake Doirani. Its high-est peak Mavrovouni reaches 1131 m. Mt Belles is lo-cated north of the same valley and its highest peak is 2031 m (Fig. 1). The northern slopes of Mavrovou-ni and the southeastern slopes of Belles are protected by the Ramsar Convention (the artificial lake of Ker-kini). Furthermore, extended parts of Krousia and Belles Mts have been included in the Greek Natura 2000 Network (GR 1230002, GR 1260001).

Krousia and Belles belong to the Serbomacedo-nian Massif. Petrographically, the area is dominated by metamorphic rocks (e.g. amphibolites, gneisses and schist). Late-tectonic and post-tectonic sedi-ments of the Pleistocene have accumulated as lacus-trine and continental deposits (IGME 1983). The climate of the area belongs to the Cfa climatic type according to Köppen’s classification and is charac-terized as humid, with long and very hot summers, mild winters, and lack of dry season (Flocas 1992). The bioclimate of the investigated area can be re-

garded as humid to subhumid, with cold to harsh winters (Mavrommatis 1980).

The forests and shrublands of the investigated area were classified into four main units representing syn-taxa in the rank of order (Populetalia albae, Pruneta-lia spinosae, Quercetalia pubescentis and Fagetalia syl-vaticae; Fotiadis 2004). Populetalia albae includes all azonal forests dominated by Platanus orientalis, Al-nus glutinosa and Salix alba, while Prunetalia spinosae includes all shrublands dominated by Paliurus spina-christi. Quercetalia pubescentis includes all shrublands dominated by Quercus coccifera and Carpinus orien-talis, as well as forests dominated mainly by Quercus pubescens, Q. frainetto, Q. petraea subsp. medwediewii and other deciduous species (Carpinus orientalis, Os-trya carpinifolia and Castanea sativa). Finally, Fageta-lia sylvaticae includes Fagus sylvatica, Tilia tomentosa and Abies borisii-regis forests. Shrublands, which be-long to Prunetalia spinosae and Quercetalia pubescen-tis, occupy 172.51 ha, while forests of Populetalia al-bae, Quercetalia pubescentis and Fagetalia sylvaticae occupy 550.04 ha (Table 1).

Material and methods

The majority of plant specimens were collected dur-ing phytosociological investigation in the Krousia Mts

and the Greek part of Mt Belles. Field work was con-ducted from May to August of 1999, 2000, 2001 and 2002 and was supplemented by collections in spring and autumn. Some extra collec-tions were made during the summer of 2003.

Collecting localities fell within the coordinates 40°58' to 41°27' N and 22°44' to 23°22' E (Fig. 1). An in-ventory of 431 phytosocio-logical relevés was evaluat-ed floristically (70 relevés in Populetalia albae, 35 relevés in Prunetalia spinosae, 242 relevés in Quercetalia pu-bescentis, and 84 relevés in Fagetalia sylvaticae). Plant Fig. 1. Map of Krousia and Greek Belles Mts, with the collecting localities.

specimens were collected inside forest and shrub-land communities, whereas edges and clearings were avoided. Plant specimens outside the relevés were col-lected simultaneously. Voucher specimens are depos-ited in the herbarium of the Labolatory of Forest Bot-any / Geobotany (TAUf). Some extra floristic data of 35 relevés (Gamisans & Hebrard 1980; Theodoropou-los & al. 1995), all concerning Quercetalia pubescentis, were also included.

The entire area of investigation was subdivided for reasons of convenience into three parts: Disoro, Mav-rovouni and Belles (Fig. 1). The coordinates that con-fine the three subareas as well as their altitudinal range are given in Table 2.

Families, genera and species are arranged alphabet-ically within the four major groups of vascular plants, viz. Pteridophyta, Gymnospermae, Dicotyledoneae and Monocotyledoneae. The nomenclature follows Strid & Tan (1997, 2002), Greuter & al. (1984, 1986, 1989, 1993), Strid (1986), Strid & Tan (1991), Tutin & al. (1968-1980, 1993), and selected taxonomic literature (in the latter case the sources are cited). The authors of plant names are those provided by Brummitt & Powell (1992).

Categorizations of species constancy per subarea and phytosociological unit follow those suggested by Tsiripidis & Athanasiadis (2003):

1) for the species constancy per subarea, the terms ‘rare’, ‘scattered’ and ‘common’ apply to the species oc-currence of <10 %, 10-20 % and >20 % of the relevés per subarea, respectively, and

2) for the constancy per phytosociological unit the terms ‘very rare’, ‘rare’, ‘scattered’, ‘common’ and ‘very common’ apply to the species occurrence of <5 %, 5-10 %, 10-20 %, 20-40 %, and >40 % of the relevés per order, respectively.

Results and discussion

A total of 483 taxa are reported in the floristic catalogue (Tables 3, 8) with 439 (405 new records) of these occur-ing in Mt Belles, 367 (65 new records) in Mt Disoro and 373 (21 new records) in Mt Mavrovouni. Furthermore, 429 taxa are found all over the area of Krousia and five of them are designated as new records.

The majority of registered taxa, belongs to dicot-yledones (391), followed by monocotyledones (75) (Table 4). Likewise, the majority of families belongs to dicotyledones (59), followed by monocotyledones (7), gymnosperms (4), and pteridophytes (2).

The majority of species appear in almost all vege-tation units, both forests and shrublands (Tables 5, 8), although their constancy values may vary. Howev-er, each of the four vegetation units bears a differ-ent number of species found solely in it (Table 6). In the case of azonal forests (Populetalia albae), the occurence of these species is related to special eco-logical conditions (water springs and rivers, or even wastelands) (Prieditis 1997). Likewise, the flora of Tilia, Fagus and Abies forests (Fagetalia sylvaticae) is diversified by a number of species, the occurrence of which could be related (Bergmeier & Dimopou-los 2001) to the lack of any considerable human im-pact, the climatic conditions (higher precipitation and lower temperatures), and the dense canopy.

Although only two species are found solely in Pru-netalia spinosae (Paliurus spina-christi shrublands), the shrublands of this order are the richest from the phytodiversity point of view, considering the low number of conducted relevés (Table 6). The species richness could be attributed to the fact that they are transitional between pastures and forests, thus lying inside an ecotone characterized by rich phytodiversi-ty (Vrachnakis & al. 2005).

An altitudinal decline has been observed spe-cies richness found between the low-altitude ther-mophilous shrublands (eg. Paliurus spina-chris-ti) and forests (eg. Quercus pubescens, Q. frainetto) and high-altitude forests (eg. Tilia tomentosa, Fagus sylvatica) (Tables 7, 8). It could be explained by the fact that the former have an open canopy (Kyriazo-poulos & al. 2006) subjected to human activity (by grazing, etc.), with has an impact on a significant number of species (e.g. Asperugo procumbens, Jug-lans regia; Mucina 1997).

Page 22: The vascular flora of forest and shrubland communities of Krousia and Belles Mts (NE Greece)

364 Fotiadis, G. & Athanasiadis, N. • The vascular flora of Krousia and Belles Mts (NE Greece)

Conclusions

1. In the forests and shrublands of Belles and Krou-sia, 439 (405 new records) taxa and 429 (five new records) (367 in Disoro and 373 in Mavrovouni) were recorded respectively.

2. Dicotyledonous taxa and families prevail.3. The majority of taxa appear in all vegetation

units, although their constancy values vary.4. The vascular flora of Populetea albae (Alnus,

Platanus and Salix) forest vegetation is significantly diversified, most likely as a result of the special eco-logical conditions (water springs and rivers, or even wastelands).

5. The vascular flora of Fagetalia sylvaticae (Tilia, Fa-gus and Abies) forest vegetation is significantly diversi-fied, most likely as a result of climatic conditions (high-er precipitation and lower temperatures), lack of strong human impact and presence of a dense canopy.

6. Considering the low number of conducted relevés, Prunetalia spinosae (Paliurus spina-christi shrublands) shows the highest species richness among the four distinguished units.

7. The high number of taxa which occur in the low-altitude shrublands and forests gradually reduc-es in the high-altitude forests.
