THE “BIOTECHNICAL” ROLE OF SALSOLA AGRIGENTINA GUSS. IN THE ENVIRONMENT PLANNING AS A CONSERVATION STRATEGY

Phytogeography studies are very important in environment planning, and especially in nature restoration where endemic or rare species as Salsola agrigentina Guss. can be used. These species represent the more suitable plants to be used within the protected areas. So the study on their features and aptitude in nature restoration (biotechnical role) is strongly required and also is related to nursery activity useful for a good ex situ conservation strategy of these taxa. Salsola agrigentina is endemic to Sicily island growing on soils of evaroritic origin. By ecological point of view, the species takes part in typical halo-nitrophilous thicket characterised by a relevant presence Chenopodiace…

Contributo alla conoscenza della flora sommersa del porto di Pantelleria (Canale di Sicilia)

Abstract Some data on the benthic flora of Pantelleria Harbour (Channel of Sicily, Mediterranean).—The benthic flora of the harbour of Pantelleria includes: 10 Myxophyceae, 56 Rhodophyceae, 44 Diatomeae, 19 Phaeophyceae, 18 Chlorophyceae and 2 Angiospermae. The Rh/Ph value (2.9) is in agreement with the values found from the open-sea. A chorological examination shows a dominance of Atlantic-Mediterranean species (54.36%).
