The flora of the island of Silba (north Dalmatia, Croatia)

The island of Silba belongs to the group of north Dalmatian islands. The surface of the island is 15 km2 and the highest part is 80 m above the sea level. Because of the characteristic geographical position and stretching (northwest - southeast), the island is exposed to the influence of the winds bura and jugo. Floristically the island is inadequately explored, because previous researches were periodical and transitory. Our researches of the vascular flora were carried out in the period of three years (2001-2004) and comprised all vegetational seasons, so they resulted with more complete data about the floral diversity of this north Dalmatian island. According to these researches, new 145 plant taxa were recorded, and with all previous records, a total of 514 plant taxa have been recorded. Taking into a consideration a small surface of the island that is a significant number of taxa. Following endemic taxa were recorded on the island: Iris illyrica Tomm., Viola adriatica Freyn, Vincetoxicum hirundinaria Medik. subsp. adriaticum (Beck) Markgr., Goniolimon dalmaticum (C.Presl.) Reichb. f., Anthyllis vulneraria L. subsp. rubiflora (DC.) Arcang. and Asplenium hybridum (Milde) Bange, that represent a new finding of this species out of the area of Kvarner archipelago. Protected species in the flora of Silba according to the Nature Conservation Law are Anacamptis pyramidalis (L.) Rich. and Cephalanthera longifolia (L.) Fritsch. Also were recorded following rare species: Briza minor L., Thymelaea hirsuta (L.) Endl. and endangered species: Blackstonia perfoliata (L.) Huds. subsp. serotina (Koch ex Rchb.) Vollm., Glaucium flavum Crantz, Carex divisa Huds. and Elymus pycnanthus (Godr.) Melderis. Among some interesting neophyte species on the island were registered: Bidens bipinnata L., Datura stramonium L., Ailanthus altissima (Mill.) Swingle and Oxalis pes-caprae L.
