The purpose of this study is to present the basic data for maintenance and management of river ecosystem by surveying and analysing the kinds and their characteristics of vascular plants in Bukcheon stream, Gyeongju-si, South Korea. The numbers of vascular plants were summarized as 428 taxa including 92 families, 265 genera, 3 subspecies, 24 varieties, 6 forms, 5 hybrids and 5 cultivars. Among the identified taxa, there were 90 planted species. The endangered wild species was Cicuta virosa, and the rare plants were 5 taxa including Prunus × yedoensis, Juniperus chinensis L. var. sargentii and so on. The Korean endemic plants were 5 taxa Populus × tomentiglandulosa, Salix koriyanagi, Lespedeza maritima, Forsythia koreana and Aster pseudoglehni. The specific plants by floristic region were 26 taxa including 2 taxa of grade V, 3 taxa of grade IV, 2 taxa of grade III, 8 taxa of grade II and 11 taxa of grade I. The naturalized plants were 81 taxa including Euphorbia maculata, Erigeron strigosus, Vulpia myuros and so on. The invasive alien plants were 7 taxa including Humulus scandens, Rumex acetosella, Ambrosia artemisiifolia, Ambrosia trifida, Lactuca seriola, Symphyotrichum pilosum and Paspalum distichum.

This study was conducted on rare plants distributed in Chungnam area from April, 2012 to November, 2017. The rare plant populations that are emerging are: Utricularia pilosa, Jeffersonia dubia, Iris ruthenica, Tipularia japonica, Calanthe discolor, Parasenecio pseudotaimingasa, Ranunculus kazusensis, Berchemia racemosa, Pogonia minor and Glehnia littoralis. According to the criteria of the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN), plant resources in the rare species category were one important type (CR), three hazardous species (EN) and six vulnerable species (VU). As a result of analyzing characteristics of ecological environment and threats, five types of habitat types, two aquatic areas, two types of flatland and coastal sand dune distribution types were analyzed. The decreasing tendency of the rare plant populations in the surveyed area is judged to be artificial disturbance and habitat destruction rather than climate or environmental change. Considering the characteristics of habitat, conservation measures should be prepared for each population.

덕유산 국립공원 지역에 생육하고 있는 회귀 및 멸종위기식물의 서식처를 답사하여 그 생육상황을 조사하였으며, 복수초 군락 등 16종류를 대상으로 하여 기존에 우리나라에서 분류되어 사용되고 있는 분류결과와 최근에 작성 중인 회귀 및 멸종위기식물의 평가기준에 따라 재분류를 시도하였다. 본 조사에서 검토된 식물 종은 복수초 군락, 너도바람꽃, 구상나무, 주목, 뻐꾹나리, 왕괴불나무, 금강애기나리, 누른종덩굴, 백작약, 개불알꽃, 노각나무, 흰참꽃, 등대시호, 한라부추, 솔나리 및 감자난 등 모두 16종류였다. 이들을 I.U.C.N.의 S.S.C.에서 마련 중인 회귀 및 멸종위기 식물의 평가기준을 적용하여 재평가한 바 Endangered (E)에 해당하는 종으로는 너도바람꽃, 구상나무, 주목, 뻐꾹나리, 백작약, 노각나무, 흰참꽃, 등대시호, 솔나리 및 감자난 등 10종이, Critical (C)에 해당하는 종으로는 왕괴불나무, 누른종덩굴, 개불알꽃, 한라부추 등 4종이, Vulnerable (V)에 해당하는 종으로는 복수초와 금강애기나리 등 2종이었다. 상기의 구분은 기존에 우리나라에서 분류되어 알려져 있는 구분과는 약간의 차이가 있었으며, 이들 식물종들의 관리보전계획을 위해 앞으로 더욱 검토, 보완되어야 하리라 판단된다. 덕유산 국립공원내에 생육하고 있는 보전대상 특정식물은 주로 등산로변이나 개발계획지 등지에 거의 무방비 상태로 노출되어 있어서 앞으로 더욱 훼손될 가능성이 높은 것으로 판단되었다.

Pteris griffithii Hook., one of the rarest fern species on the Indian subcontinent, is reported from Bhutan for the first time. The identity of this species was confirmed through morphological determination at the National Herbarium (THIM) of the National Biodiversity Centre (NBC) of Bhutan. It was found only in one location, in Gyelpozhing in eastern Bhutan, at an elevation of 521 m a.s.l. on 10 January 2016. Given that a very limited study of this species was conducted, the knowledge baseline with regard to its distribution is poor. It is also reported that this species has not been found for several years. The species is also considered to be very rare or critically endangered in some countries; however, there are no assessments on the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List for this particular species. This paper attempts to provide baseline information considering its rarity and data deficiency. This species is also reported from the adjacent neighboring Indian state of Arunachal Pradesh as very rare, and also from Myanmar; however, confirmation of its presence in China is not clear at this time. Therefore, considering its data deficient status, we attempt to document it scientifically to create a knowledgebase pertaining to this particular species. Concurrently, this species merits further research to understand its distribution patterns in Bhutan and any related anthropogenic threats.

본 조사지역인 손죽도는 전라남도 여수시 삼산면 손죽리에 속하며, 지리적으로는 동경 127도 21분, 북위 34도 16분에 위치하고 있다. 유관속 식물을 대상으로 2001년 12월부터 2002년 11월까지 12개월에 걸쳐 식물상을 조사하였다. 본 연구결과 관속식물은 113과 291속, 519종, 60변종, 5품종 총 584종이 동정되었다. 이 지역은 전형적으로 곰솔이 우점종이며, 남방계 식물이 나타나는 특징을 가지고 있다. 이중 특산식물은 10과 10속 8종 5변종으로 총 13종류로 이 지역에서 관찰되는 전체식물종의 2.0%를 나타낸다. 회귀 및 멸종위기식물은 솔잎란, 애기등, 섬첨남성, 및 지네발란 등이 관찰되었다. 그 외에 귀화식물은 9과, 20속, 23종으로 우리나라 전체 귀화식물종 281종류의 8.2%로 조사되었다. 본 지역은 면적에 비해 한국특산식물, 회귀식물 및 멸종위기식물 등이 많이 분포하는 생태적으로 중요한 지역이지만 한편으로는 귀화식물의 점유율이 점점 높아지는 등 환경오염에 따른 인위적인 훼손의 위협 증대되고 있어 섬 전체에 대해 지속적인 정부의 강력한 관리 및 개발 규제가 있어야만 할 것으로 사료된다.

Meghalaya, (in India), in the region of the mega-biodiversity hotspots, is home to a plethora of wild mushrooms. The present study concerns the exploration of the order Agaricales, which includes rare gilled mushrooms considered endangered under IUCN A4c criteria, due to the declining habitat. Electron microscopy of the gill sections revealed an abundance of clamp connections, hyphal cell walls, cystidia, and basidia. This rare species which belongs to the family Cyphellaceae, exhibits morphological and molecular differences from the Cyphella spp. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that it formed a clade under the genus Campanophyllum of the order Agaricales, confirmed by both Neighbor Joining (NJ) and Bayesian phylogenetic analysis. Being nutritionally potent along with its efficient antioxidant value, the fungal extract shows significant rise of two-fold in the antimicrobial activity along with the commercial antibiotics. The compound, Phenol, 2, 4-bis (1, 1-Dimethylethyl) (2, 4-DTBP) showed in ample range in the fungal extract along with aliphatic hydrocarbons, terpene, alcohol and volatile organic compounds on further characterization in GCMS. The present study indicates the endangered Campanophyllum proboscideum could be a rich source of natural antioxidants and an effective pharmaceutical agent.

The objective of this study was to provide basic data for the conservation of wetland ecosystems in the Civilian Control Zone and the management of Yongyangbo wetlands in South Korea. Yongyangbo wetlands have been designated as protected areas. A field survey was conducted across five sessions between April 2019 and August of 2019. A total of 248 taxa were identified during the survey, including 72 families, 163 genera, 230 species, 4 subspecies, and 14 varieties. Their life-forms were Th (therophytes) - R₅ (non-clonal form) - D₄ (clitochores) - e (erect form), with a disturbance index of 33.8%. Three taxa of rare plants were detected: Silene capitata Kom. and Polygonatum stenophyllum Maxim. known to be endangered species, and Aristolochia contorta Bunge, a least-concern species. S. capitata is a legally protected species designated as a Class II endangered species in South Korea. A total of 26 taxa of naturalized plants were observed, with a naturalization index of 10.5%. There was one endemic plant taxon (Salix koriyanagi Kimura ex Goerz). In terms of floristic target species, there was one taxon in class V, one taxon in Class IV, three taxa in Class III, five taxa in Class II, and seven taxa in Class I. Three invasive alien species (Ambrosia trifida L., Ambrosia artemisiifolia L., and Humulus japonicus Siebold & Zucc) were observed. For continuous conservation of Yongyangbo Wetlands, it is necessary to remove invasive alien plants and block the inflow of non-point pollutants.
