THE STATE OF PHYTODIVERSITY OF HYDROLOGICAL RESERVES OF THE SADIVSKA TERRITORIAL COMMUNITY OF SUMY DISTRICT

Keywords: nature reserve fund, biodiversity, rare biodiversity, flora, rare species, hydrological reserve

Abstract

The publication presents the results of the assessment of the current state of phytodiversity of the hydrological reserves of local importance «Verkhniosulskyi-2» (230.6 ha) and «Holubivskyi» (15.2 ha) located within the Sadivska settlement territorial community. These reserves were created to preserve the Sula River and the valuable water bodies in its basin. The study of these territories of the nature reserve fund was conducted using generally accepted floristic and geobotanical methods. The «Verkhniosulskyi-2» reserve represents floodplain landscapes of the deeply embedded floodplain of the Sula River. The «Holubivskyi» hydrological reserve is located in the upper reaches of the gully system of the upper reaches of the Sula River and is represented by one water body with a coastal strip. The territory of both reserves is characterized by a high level of aesthetic appeal. The vegetation cover of the «Verkhniosulskyi-2» reserve is dominated by meadow communities (covering almost 41.2% of the territory), aquatic and air-water vegetation (covering 28.4% of the territory), forest vegetation (covering 25.9%), while shrubs are distributed only on 4.5% of the reserve’s territory. The core of the protected object within the «Holubivskyi» Reserve is the pond, which covers 77.6% of the reserve’s territory. About half of this area is occupied by aquatic vegetation. The land part of this reserve is about 22.4% of its territory and is occupied by tree and shrub communities. It has been established that the floristic core of the natural flora in the «Verkhniosulskyi-2» reserve is represented by 234 species, and in the «Holubivskyi» reserve – by 58 species. «Verkhniosulskyi-2» contains one plant species included in the «List of plant, animal and fungal species subject to special protection in the Sumy region», while the «Holubivskyi» reserve does not contain such plant species. In both reserves, a significant percentage of the flora is made up of medicinal plants. In «Verkhniosulskyi-2», the number of medicinal plant species reaches 85, which is 36.3% of the reserve’s flora, and in «Holubivskyi», 32 (55.8% of the flora). Based on the available data on the state of phytodiversity in the hydrological reserves of the Sadivska territorial community, it becomes possible to identify areas and measures aimed at improving the protection of natural complexes. In particular, it is necessary to continue studying their biodiversity and to start monitoring the state of both flora and fauna of the reserves.
