ORCHIS MILITARIS L. AND OTHER FLORISTIC RECORDS FROM THE BAIKALSKY RESERVE
Floristic studies carried out on the territory of the Baikalsky Nature Reserve and its buffer zone in recent years, as well as the revision of previously collected herbarium specimens, have made it possible to update the check-list of flora of the Reserve. 13 plant species (Anemonoides sylvestris (L.) Galasso, Banfi & Soldano, Axyris hybrida L., Dianthus deltoides L., Echinochloa crusgalli (L.) P. Beauv., Gueldenstaedtia verna (Georgi) Boriss., Iris sanguinea Hornem., Leonurus sibiricus L., Orchis militaris L., Orthilia obtusata (Turcz.) H. Hara, Persicaria amphibia (L.) Delarbre, Phleum phleoides (L.) H. Karst, Ribes procumbens Pall., Salix arctica Pall.) are firstly recorded for the Baikalsky Reserve. For 50 plant species recently found in the Reserve or rare on this territory we provide new recordings. The distribution of 17 plant species (Artemisia sericea Weber ex Stechm., Artemisia tanacetifolia L., Astragalus suffriticosus DC., Carex korshinskyi Kom., Carex pallescens L., Cirsium serratuloides (L.) Hill, Eranthis tanhoensis Erst, Fritillaria dagana Turcz. ex Trautv., Hackelia deflexa (Wahlenb.) Opiz, Polystichum lonchitis (L.) Roth, Puccinellia hauptiana (V.I. Krecz.) Kitag., Pyrola chlorantha Sw., Schizachne purpurascens (Torr.) Swallen subsp. callosa (Turcz. ex Griseb.) T. Koyama & Kawano, Selaginella sanguinolenta (L.) Spring, Silene aprica Turcz. ex Fisch. & C.A. Mey., Silene jeniseensis Willd., Stevenia alyssoides Adams & Fisch) in the Baikalsky Reserve is significantly clarified, and we compiled the maps of their distribution. Four species (Allium amphibolum Ledeb., Eranthis sibirica DC., Leonurus deminutus V.I. Krecz. and Salix reticulata L.) are excluded from the Baikalsky Reserve's flora. Therefore, an updated current check-list of the Baikalsky Reserve's flora including all records from all the published sources contains 1150 species.
