  • This study was carried out to investigate and analyze the vascular flora and injury status in Shinduri coastal dune area $(N36^{\circ}\;49',\;E126^{\circ}\;11')$, where designated as Natural Monuments and the result are as follows. The vascular plants identified and surveyed were 125 taxa including 108 species, 14 varieties, 2 forms and 1 hybrid of 92 genera of 40 families and there are 20 taxa including 17 species, 2 varieties and 1 hybrid of 15 genera of 10 families for woody plants, while 105 toxa including 91 species, 12 varieties and 2 forms of 78 genera of 34 families for the herbaceous plants at the . study sites. Seventeen taxa including 17 species of 15 genera of 9 families were investigated for naturalized plants and ratio of naturalization was 13.6 percents at the study sites. Glehnia littorolis Fr. Schm. and Lilium callosum S. et Z. appeared as rare and endangered plants designated in Korea Forest Service. Nine taxa in degree 1, 2 taxa in degree 2, 4 taxa in degree 3, 2 taxa in degree 4 and 2 taxa in degree 5 were represented for especialized species.

  • Tonggo-san(1066.5m) is located at 36° 53' 00" - 36" 55' 00" in latitude, at 129° 10' 30" - 129° 13' 00" in longitude and on Seo-myeon, Uljin-gun and Subi-myeon, Yeongyang-gun in Gyeongsangbuk-do. Tonggo-san shows the typical vegetation patterns including the middle area of temperate region of Korea represented by the secondary forests of Quercus mongolica and Q. dentata. There was no detailed result on the flora and vegetation of Tonggo-san until now. Therefore, we tried to discuss on the distribution and availability of vascular plants including economical plants. Also, we could discuss the especialized plants and their distributions according to the criteria by the Ministry of Environment. The results of plant collection and their investigation from April in 2001 to November in 2001 are as follows : The vascular plants consist of total 565 taxa; 17 forms, 82 varieties, 466 species, 297 genera, 94 families,37 orders, 4 classes, 2 subphyla. In this area, there were a lot of useful economic plants such as 232 taxa(41%) of edible source, 222 taxa(39%) of forage source, 183 taxa(32%) of medicinal source, and 72 taxa(12%) of ornamental source, 15 taxa(2.6%) timber source, 7 taxa(1.2%) industrial raw material source respectively. Among them, the Korean endemic plants were 22 taxa(3.9% among total 565 taxa); 1 forms, 2 varieties, 19 species, 22 genera, 16 families. And rare and endangered plants was 1 taxa; Astragatus membranaceus. Also, the naturalized plants were 19 taxa(3.4% among total 565 taxa and 10.4% among the total naturalized plants in Korea).
