Flora at some pit and cave entrances of Žumberak, Croatia

This study presents results of floristic research into the entrances of seven speleological features of Žumberak, i.e. of three pits and four caves. One of them lies in Upper Triassic dolostones, three in Upper Cretaceous flysch and carbonate sediments, two in Badenian limestone and one in Quarternary travertine sediments. The flora was inventoried at the entrance areas and at different distances from the entrances into the speleological features. The recorded plants were analyzed both taxonomically and regarding the abundance in the type habitats (pit, cave). Furthermore, similarity between habitats (Sörensen index of similarity), ecological indicatory values and life forms were analyzed as well.
