| Description | Our current research shows that the phenomenon of isolated occurrences of mire plants in Bulgaria is even more widespread than previously thought. Our analyses showed a conspicuous concentration of rare, disjunctly occurring species at a few sites, which are, however, largely unexplored in terms of palaeoecology or ecology, not legally protected and currently threatened by human activities. |
