This study presents the native flora of Mountain Panachaikon (N.W. Peloponnese, Greece), after extensive field work (from ~700 to 1900 m) and critical literature review.
The vascular native flora of Mt. Panachaikon comprises 757 taxa, 95 of which are Greek endemics, 79 are Balkan endemics, while 229 taxa are reported here for the first time. The known distribution of the Greek endemics Alyssum montanum subsp. montanum var. graecum, Carum heldreichii, Cirsium heldreichii, Genista milii, Minuartia eurytanica and Seseli parnassicum is expanded, being reported for the first time for the floristic region of Peloponnese, and the number of the known populations of the Near Threatened Gymnospermium altaicum subsp. peloponnesiacum is increased.
The study area appears to have the second highest endemism and the highest one in W. Greece, compared with other mountains of N. Peloponnese and Sterea Ellada, while 22.10% of the endemics are protected and/or evaluated as Near Threatened to Endangered. It also exhibits a rather high proportion of Balkan endemics, in relation to its geographic location, and some genuine arctic-alpine taxa. These indicate that Mt. Panachaikon can be rendered as a plant diversity hotspot in the Peloponnese.
本研究在进行广泛的实地考察(海拔约700至1900米)并对相关文献进行严格审查之后,展示了帕纳哈伊孔山(希腊伯罗奔尼撒半岛西北部)的本地植物群。
帕纳哈伊孔山的维管植物本地植物群包括757个分类单元,其中95个是希腊特有种,79个是巴尔干特有种,另有229个分类单元在此首次被报道。希腊特有种高山庭荠亚种高山庭荠变种希腊庭荠、赫尔德瑞希明党参、赫尔德瑞希蓟、米利金雀儿、宽叶米努草和帕尔纳索斯邪蒿的已知分布范围得到扩展,首次在伯罗奔尼撒植物区被报道,近危植物阿尔泰裸果木亚种伯罗奔尼撒裸果木的已知种群数量增加。
与伯罗奔尼撒半岛北部和希腊中部的其他山脉相比,该研究区域似乎具有希腊第二高的特有性,在希腊西部则具有最高的特有性,并且22.10%的特有种受到保护和/或被评估为近危至濒危。就其地理位置而言,它还呈现出相当高比例的巴尔干特有种以及一些真正的北极高山分类单元。这些表明帕纳哈伊孔山可被视为伯罗奔尼撒半岛的一个植物多样性热点地区。
