| Abstract: | This paper brings new data on the distribution of habitats and plant species considered endangered and vulnerable in Romania from an unexplored valley in Sălaj County. Here we identified four types of Romanian habitats and two wetland habitats present on Natura 2000 lists (6440 Alluvial meadows of river valleys of the Cnidion dubii and 6410 Molinia meadows on calcareous, peaty or clayey-silt-laden soils (Molinion caeruleae). The valley contains numerous plant species that are rare in Romania, five of them being included in the Romanian national red lists (Fritillaria meleagris, Narcissus poeticus ssp. radiiflorus, Iris sibirica, Gentiana pneumonanthe, Achillea ptarmica) (Oltean et al., 1994; Boşcaiu et al., 1994) and onespecies is protected by the Natura 2000 network in Europe (Eleocharis carniolica).We recommend that the existing protected area to be enlarged by 48 ha and in this way the protected area will include the populations of Fritillaria meleagris and Eleocharis carniolica, and the Natura 2000 identified habitats. |
