  • This study was conducted to investigate the vascular flora of two outstanding forest wetlands(OFW) in Goheung-gun, Jeollanam-do, and to prepare an efficient management plan for forest wetlands through comparison with previous studies. Fieldwork was conducted seasonally from May to October 2023, The flora in the two OFW located in Goheung-gun, Jeollanam-do, consisted of 117 taxa such as 55 families, 92 genera, 108 species, 7 variants, 1 variety and 1 hybrid. The endemic plants were 4 taxa and rare plants were 7 taxa. Floristic target plants were V class 2 taxa, IV class 6 taxa, III class 8 taxa, II class 4 taxa and Iclass 21 taxa. Climate change adaptation plants were 10 taxa and naturalized plants was 1 taxa. Obligate wetland plants were 16 taxa, Facultative wetland plants 10 taxa and Facultative plant 4 taxa. OFW functioning a typical wetland ecosystem in Goheung-gun had been providing habitats for a variety of rare plants, such as the Habenaria radiata and Drosera rotundifolia. But those ecosystems would be suffering a critical disturbance such as human interference, the invasion of naturalized plants, and change of wetland function through landization for a short future. Therefore we suggest those OFWs should be designated as a Forest Genetic Resource Reserve in order to keep the ecosystems permanently and to manage them more soundly and efficiently.

  • We investigated the area around four moors from May 2009 to June 2010 for plant diversity in Moojechineup, officially designated as the Ramsar wetland. The vascular plants of Moojechineup at Mt. Jeongjok were recorded as total 149 taxa, 55 families, 105 genera, 128 species, 1 subspecies, 16 varieties, and 4 forms. Rare plants were observed 7 taxa (Eriophorum gracile Koch, Drosera rotundifolia L., Iris ensata var. spontanea (Makino) Nakai, Kobresia bellardii (All.) Degl, Utricularia bifida L., Utricularia racemosa Wall., Utricularia yakusimensis Masam.). Korean endemic plants were 1 taxon, floristics special plants were 19 taxa, and naturalized plants were 3 taxa. Phytogeographical and evolutionarily, Eriophorum gracile is an important species; hence, further studies are needed to conserve it. Moojechineup is similar to the Shinbulsan wetland in terms of wetland plants (hydrophytes). Moojechineup's flora changes are in process slowly compared to earlier work; thus, continuing interest and appropriate measures should be encouraged.

  • This study was carried out as basic data for the conservation and management of plant diversity in the Gudeuljang paddy fields stone retaining wall of Cheongsan-island by identifying the characteristics of vascular plants targeting Gudeuljang paddy fields stone retaining wall in Cheongsan-island. The total vascular plants of the Gudeuljang paddy fields stone retaining wall in Cheongsan-island have been identified with a total of 184 taxa of 60 families, 142 genera, 170 species, 5 subspecies, 9 varieties. Rare plants were 1 taxa, Korea endemic plants were 2 taxa, floristic regional indicator plants were 28 taxa, rock vegetation was 20 taxa, and invasive alien plants were 25 taxa. Among them, Selliguea hastata (Thunb.) Fraser-Jenk., a rare plants, has been identified as a small number of individuals in the Gudeuljang paddy fields stone retaining wall in Buheung-ri and Cheonggye-ri, but it is necessary to conservation the habitat because there is a concern that the species and population will decrease due to damage and neglect of the Gudeuljang paddy fields stone retaining wall.
