Abstract

Based on our research of forest vegetation in the Reka River gorge between the villages of Škoflje and Škocjan in the Škocjan Caves Regional Park we made phytosociological tables to describe the stands of the following forest and shrub communities: Seslerio autumnalis-Quercetum cerridis, Corydalido ochroleucae-Ostryetum carpinifoliae (a valid description of the previously only provisionally described association), Ornithogalo pyrenaici-Carpinetum betuli, Galantho nivalis-Coryletum avellanae, Salicetum eleagno-purpureae and Lamio orvalae-Alnetum glutinosae. We described marginal sites of the latter association at the contact with other forest communities as three new subassociations: scirpetosum sylvaticae (Brkini, Mlake near Hrušica and the spring area of the Klivnik at Podgrad), fraxinetosum orni (by the creek of Bela between Sanabor and Vrhpolje in the Vipava Valley) and fagetosum sylvaticae (Kazarska Grapa gorge below Bukovo in the Cerkno Hills).

Key words: vegetation, syntaxonomy, riverine forest, southwestern Slovenija, Natura 2000

 

Izvleček

Na podlagi raziskav gozdne vegetacije v soteske reke Reke med Škofljami in Škocjanom v Regijskem parku Škocjanske jame smo s fitocenološkimi tabelami opisali sestoje naslednjih gozdnih in grmiščnih združb: Seslerio autumnalis-Quercetum cerridis, Corydalido ochroleucae-Ostryetum carpinifoliae (veljaven opis do zdaj le provizorno opisane asociacije), Ornithogalo pyrenaici-Carpinetum betuli, Galantho nivalis-Coryletum avellanae, Salicetum eleagno-purpureae in Lamio orvalae-Alnetum glutinosae. Robna rastišča slednje asociacije na stiku z drugimi gozdnimi združbami smo opisali kot tri nove subasociacije: scirpetosum sylvaticae (Brkini, Mlake pri Hrušici in povirje Klivnika pri Podgradu), fraxinetosum orni (ob potoku Bela med Sanaborom in Vrhpoljem v Vipavski dolini) in fagetosum sylvaticae (Kazarska grapa pod Bukovim v Cerkljanskem hribovju).
