Sažetak
Forest-park Jelenovac is located on the southern slopes of the Medvednica Mt. The surface area of the park is 54.5 hectares, 48.9 of which is covered with forests dominated by hornbeam and sessile oak (the association Epimedio-Carpinetum betuli (Horvat 1938) Borhidi 1963). Numerous pathways are present mostly within the forest habitats, whereas on higher elevations near Vrhovac several grasslands and meadows occur. Since this area has not yet been botanically explored, a survey of vascular plant species was conducted during March and June 2019. Approximately 250 taxa were found within the park, with the largest families being Compositae and Rosaceae. According to current legal acts, three strictly protected species were found, including two orchids (Cephalanthera damasonium (Mill.) and Neottia nidus-avis (L.) Rich.). Seven species are included in the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species ; three as Least Concern, three as Near Threatened and one as Vulnerable. In total 12 invasive and 33 cultivated taxa were recorded, as a result of rather considerable human influence. The results of this research represent a valuable addition to the urban flora of Zagreb and Croatian flora in general.
