Abstract

Scirpus georgianus Harper, a species, native of North America and new to Slovenia, was found in the Krakovo forest (near Kostanjevica, Malence and Virgin forest reserve); moreover, a new community Dactylorhizo majalis-Scirpetum georgiani ass. nova was described after close examination of stands. The characteristic inflorescence clearly distinguishes the mentioned species from the other two of the genus Scirpus L., section Scirpus (S. sylvaticus L. and S. radicans Schkuhr); new key for genus Scirpus L. was also made. The studied species thrives in wet meadows, where it sometimes builds larger stands, as well as in gaps in swamps where there is still enough light. On the basis of specific ecological conditions of sites and multivariate analyses, the mentioned stands were classified into a new community, which was given the name Dactylorhizo majalis-Scirpetum georgiani. The mentioned community thrives on drier sites than the community Scirpetum sylvatici Rałski 1931, which is similar to it.
