  Abstract:  VIEW PDF: COMMENT ON MACALIK ET AL. (2013) AND AN UPDATE ON THE STATUS OF SYRINGA JOSIKAEA (OLEACEAE) IN THE APUSENI MOUNTAINS, ROMANIA

Syringa josikaea is a rare and endangered shrub of the Carpathian Mountains. Its distribution was not studied for a century and data on its populations needed re-assessment. Macalik et al. (2013) presented data on the distribution of S. josikaea in the Apuseni Mountains, which is, however, incomplete. Here we complement the distribution data presented by Macalik et al. (2013) from the literature and field survey we performed recently. Populations not mentioned by Macalik et al. (2013) exist in the Someşul Cald Valley, the Galbenei Valley and probably also in the Drăgan Valley. We did not find populations reported by earlier literature in the Aleu and Obîrșia Valleys and in the main valley and side valleys of Crișul Repede near Ciucea, Negreni and Lorâu. The population in the Someşul Cald Valley, the largest of all, needs special attention for conserving S. josikaea in the Apuseni Mountains.
