Abstract

Planina Papuk se nalazi u kontinentalnom dijelu Hrvatske na prostoru dodira Središnje i Istočne Hrvatske. Najveći dio je 23. travnja 1999. godine proglašen Parkom prirode Papuk. Zbog svoje velike georaznolikosti Park prirode Papuk postaje prvi geopark iz Hrvatske 2007. godine.
Prilike staništa u području Parka prirode Papuk su vrlo složene, što se odražava i u sastavu i rasporedu šumskih zajednica na tom području. Iako šume prekrivaju najveći dio površine Papuka, veliki značaj ima i nešumska vegetacija. Najviše ugroženih i zaštićenih biljnih vrsta raste na travnjacima, uz potoke, te na drugim nešumskim površinama. Veliki dio travnjaka vrlo brzo sukcesijom prelazi u šumu ili su pretvoreni u obradive površine.
Na području Papuka možemo pronaći 50 ugroženih vrsta koje većinom postižu svoj ekološki optimum. Osnovni razlozi ugroženosti flore Parka prirode Papuk su nekontrolirano sakupljanje dekorativnih vrsta i nestajanje pojedinih tipova staništa.

Abstract (english)

The mountain Papuk is located in the continental part of Croatia, where Middle and East Croatia meet. The largest part of the mountain became the Nature Park Papuk on April 23rd 1999. Because of its geological variety, it became the first Geopark in Croatia in 2007.
Habitats in the area of the Nature Park Papuk are complex, which can be seen in the composition and layout of forest vegetation types. Even though forests cover the most of the area, non-forest vegetation is of huge importance. Most of endangered plant species grow on grasslands, near streams and other non-forest surfaces. The greatest deal of grasslands are becoming forests or they are being turned into agricultural lands.
In the area of Papuk there are 50 endangered species and most of them are reaching their ecological optimum. The main reasons why they became endangered are uncontrollable collecting of decorative species and disappearing of certain habitats.
