The archaeobotanical samples analysed derive from a well-preserved well dated to the Early Iron Age (Hallstatt) according to pottery found in the sampled layers and on a radiocarbon dating (720-520 cal B.C.) of the wooden construction of the well. Cultivated plants (Panicum miliaceum, Linum usitatissimum, Papaver somniferum and Camelina sativa) were recorded in relatively small numbers whereas ...

Solanum nigrum (European Black Nightshade or locally just "black nightshade", present in the flora of Europe, Serbia. It grows in different types of habitats like as weed, in crops, ruderal habitats, along the roads, fences and neglected places. They are semi cultivated in most countries and largely utilized as a vegetable and fruit source. Solanum nigrum has very much importance as a medicinal...

The introduction of nurse species on degraded sites Permanently Protected Areas represents a useful strategy for vegetation recovery in riparian forest. Species the genus Baccharis (Asteraceae) have been documented as potential plants being able restructuring native plant community. This study was aimed to evaluate nursing role dracunculifolia community Atlantic rainforest short-time period. de...

The effect of species richness and spatial aggregation on the stability of community productivity in response to drought perturbation was investigated with experimental plant communities. Communities comprising all singleand three-species combinations of the ruderal species, Capsella bursa-pastoris, Tripleurospermum inodorum, Poa annua, and Stellaria media, were established in glasshouse. Habit...

Mature larva and pupa of Adosomus (s. str.) roridus (Pallas, 1781) (Curculionidae: Lixinae: Cleonini) are described and compared with ten other taxa of Cleonini with known larvae. This weevil is an oligophagous species on the Asteraceae family. From our observations in Slovakia, we found active adults from April to September in dry sunny places within extensively used or fallow vineyards and in...

In this contribution is presented a phytosociological description of plant communities, recorded in the phytogeographical district of Eastern Mongolia, including parts of the Dornod (Eastern) and the Choybalsan aymags. The whole district is characterized by steppe vegetation. Other vegetation types, like elm (Ulmus pumila) bush vegetation, shrubbery on sandy and rocky sites, Salix miyabeana bus...
