Abstract

Cilj ovog diplomskog rada bilo je istražiti tradicionalnu upotrebu biljaka u ruralnoj okolici Vrlike,
na području na kojem ne postoje prethodni etnobotanički podaci. Istraživanje je provedeno
metodom standardiziranog etnobotaničkog intervjua s 32 ispitanika te analizom botaničkih
podataka. Zabilježena je upotreba ukupno 159 biljnih svojti, od čega je 101 samonikla i 58
kultiviranih svojti. Analizom prikupljenih podataka, utvrđeno je da se u ruralnoj okolici Vrlike
najčešće koriste biljke iz porodice Rosaceae (12%), Lamiaceae (7%), Asteraceae (6%) te Poaceae
(6%). Upotrebna analiza flore pokazala je da se zabilježene biljne svojte na ovom području koriste
kao hrana ljudima (37%), u medicinske svrhe (18%), za izradu pića (10%), izradu predmeta (6%),
prehranu životinja (5%), kao začin (5%), za ogrjev (3%), za prodaju (3%), kao ukras za dom (2%),
za liječenje životinja (2%) te u ostale svrhe (9%). Usporedbom s etnobotaničkim istraživanjem
provedenim na u ruralnoj okolici Knina, pokazano je da se na oba područja koriste slične svojte.

Abstract (english)

The goal of this thesis was to investigate the traditional use of plants in the rural area of Vrlika, in
a region without previous ethnobotanical data. The research was conducted using the method of
standardized ethnobotanical interviews with 32 respondents and the analysis of botanical data. A
total of 159 plant taxa were recorded, of which 101 were wild plants and 58 were cultivated.
Analysis of the collected data showed that most commonly used plants in the rural area of Vrlika
belong to the families Rosaceae (12%), Lamiaceae (7%), Asteraceae (6%), and Poaceae (6%). The
usage analysis of the flora showed that the recorded plant species in this area are used as food for
humans (37%), for medicinal purposes (18%), making drinks (10%), making tools (6%), feeding
animals (5%), as a spice (5%), for fuel (3%), for sale (3%), as home decoration (2%), for treating
animals (2%), and for other purposes (9%). Comparison with ethnobotanical research conducted
in the rural area of Knin showed that similar species are used in both areas.
