| Summary: | A pasture on the solonchakic solonetz soil in the vicinity of the village of
Iđoš (Banat, Serbia) was found to harbor 137 plant taxa (129 species, 7
subspecies and 1 variety). The plant cover they formed was specific from the
ecological, phytogeographical and phytocoenological points of view. The
specific ecological feature of the surveyed plant cover was that 47 or 34.31%
of the recorded taxa were rated with the ecological index S+ due to their
ability to grow in saline soil. The specific phytogeographical feature of the
surveyed plant cover was the presence of two Pannonian endemics, Plantago
schwarzenbergiana Schur and Statice gmelini subsp. hungaricum (Klokov) Soó,
and two subendemics, Puccinellia limosa Holmb. and Roripa kerneri Menyh. The
specific phytocoenological feature of the surveyed plant cover was the
presence of two phytocoenoses from the class Phragmitetea Tx. et Prsg. 1942
(ass. Scirpo-Phragmitetum medioeuropaeum and ass. Bolboschoenetum maritimi
continentale), one phytocoenose from the class Molinio- Arrhenatheretea
Tx.1937 p.p., Br.-Bl. et Tx. 1943 p.p. (ass. Trifolio-Lolietum perennis) and
ten phytocoenoses from the class Festuco-Puccinellietea Soó 1968 (ass.
Puccinellietum limosae, ass. Pholiuro-Plantaginetum tenuiflorae, ass.
Hordeetum histricis, ass. Agrostio-Alopecuretum pratensis, ass.
Agrostio-Beckmannietum, ass. Halo-Agropyretum repentis, ass.
Poeto-Alopecuretum pratensis halophyticum, ass. Artemisio-Festucetum
pseudovinae, ass. Trifolio-Festucetum pseudovinae and ass.
Achilleo-Festucetum pseudovinae). The presence of 34.31% of taxa rated with
the ecological index S+, the presence of two Pannonian and two sub-Pannonian
floristic elements and the predominance of stands from the class
Festuco-Puccinellietea Soó 1968 led us to conclusion that the pasture near
the village of Iđoš (Banat, Serbia) is a part of the halobiome of the
Pannonian Plain. [Projekat Ministarstva nauke Republike Srbije, br. TR31016:
