Vaskularna i mahovinska flora otočića Mrduja (Istočni Jadran, Hrvatska)

The flora of the minute islet of Mrduja (1.3 ha), located between the Middle Adriatic islands of Brač and Šolta, was studied in 2017, resulting in the recording of 63 taxa of vascular plants and six bryophytes. The predominance of the Poaceae (13%) and Fabaceae (8%), terophytes (30%) and Mediterranean floral elements (73%) clearly demonstrates the Mediterranean phyto-geographical position of the islet. Nearly one third of taxa were found on anthropogenic habitats, even though they are exceptionally rare on the islet, proving that even a slight human presence can have a profound influence on the flora of an island.Tijekom 2017. provedena su istraživanja vaskularne flore i flore mahovina otočića Mrduje (1.3 ha), smještenog između srednjodalmatinskih otoka Brača i Šolte. Utvrđene su 63 svojte vaskularne flore, te šest svojti mahovina. Dominacija porodica Poaceae (13%) i Fabaceae (8%), terofitskog životnog oblika (30%) i mediteranskih flornih elemenata (73%) jasno ukazuje na mediteranski fitogoegrafski položaj otočića. Gotovo trećina svojti zabilježena je na antropogenim staništima koja su vrlo rijetka na otočiću, što dokazuje da čak i slaba prisutnost ljudi može značajno utjecati na floru otoka
