Lychnothamnus Barbatus (Meyen) Leonh. – Rediscovered In Shalow Lake Šventininkai (Lithuania) After 50 Years
Abstract Lychnothamnus barbatus, which in Lithuania occurs northernmost in Europe, was identified in 4 lakes: Balsys, Mažasis Gulbinu, Vygris and Šventininkai. The aim of the paper was to present the recent vegetation, habitat conditions, abundance and co-occurring plant species in shallow Lake Šven...
