Sažetak
Phytosociological investigation of the spontaneous vegetation was carried out on seven years old ferro-manganese and silico-manganese slag heaps at the area of the former Electrode and Ferroalloy Factory in the city of Šibenik and the landfill in the village of Biljane Donje, south Croatia, in May 2018. There were 64 plant taxa in total. Two non-indigenous species were noted: Papaver rhoeas L. and Conyza canadensis (L.) Cronquist. The latter species was considered invasive. Ruderals and weeds that are characteristic for the phytosociological classes Chenopodietea and Artemisietea vulgaris, as well as taxa of dry open habitats (the classes Festuco-Brometea and Sedo- Scleranthetea) were dominant in the vegetation. In addition, a limited number and cover of woody taxa suggests the presence of an early successional stage in the process of development of natural vegetation. However, we recommend removing the heaps from the area and initiating soil remediation according to Croatian laws, EU standards and obligations.
