Abstract
Using new relevés, this article revises the internal structure of the association Marisco hamulosi-Crypsietum schoenoidis Taran 1993 (Eleocharition soloniensis Philippi 1968, Nanocyperetalia Klika 1935, Isoëto-Nanojuncetea Br.-Bl. et Tx. in Br.-Bl. et al. 1952), described on an island in the channel of the Black Irtysh River (Republic of Kazakhstan, East Kazakhstan Region, 47°58′52″ N, 85°22′20″ E). Crypsis schoenoides, Eragrostis suaveolens and Mariscus hamulosus are retained as diagnostic species (d. s.) of the association. The association is divided into two variants: typica (d. s.: Potentilla supina, Spergularia diandra, Middendorfia borysthenica) and inops (d. s.: Alisma gramineum f. humile). Communities of the var. typica are confined to the newest alluvial zone of the island, where forests and shrubs have not yet formed. Communities of the var. inops are confined to the bottoms of inter-ridge depressions which are occupied by sparse herbaceous vegetation and moderately shaded by ribbons or clumps of low-growing forests. In addition, the article describes an Alisma gramineum-Crypsis schoenoides community formed under conditions of high insolation in an internal depression of the island. The association Marisco hamulosi-Crypsietum schoenoidis is compared with European associations dominated by Dichostylis micheliana: Cyperetum micheliani Horvatić 1931, Dichostylido-Heleochloetum alopecuroidis (Tímár 1950) Pietsch 1973 pro parte (facies typicum sensu I. Bagi 1991), Ludwigio palustris-Cyperetum micheliani Rivas Martínez et al. 1980 ex Silva et al. 2021 and Crypsio schoenoidis-Cyperetum micheliani Martínez Parras et al. 1988. As a result of the analysis, it was proposed to include fairly large (up to 16—25 m2) coenoses with a clear dominance of Dichostylis micheliana into the Cyperetum micheliani Horvatić 1931. The range of such communities are the floodplains of the Danube River and its tributaries in Croatia, Serbia, Hungary, Slovakia and Romania. In this article, the Cyperetum micheliani Horvatić 1931 is divided into two variants and five subvariants: the typica var. nov. (Croatia, Serbia, Hungary), including the Lindernia procumbens subvar. nov. (Croatia, the Lonja River), the Persicaria hydropiper subvar. nov. (Serbia, the Danube River) and the Xanthium italicum subvar. nov. (Hungary, the Körös River), as well as the inops var. nov. (Slovakia, Romania), including the inops subvar. nov. (Slovakia: the Danube, Morava, Ipeľ and Latorica rivers) and the Pulicaria vulgaris subvar. nov. (Romania, the Danube Delta).
