| Description | In this paper we present preliminary results of the study focused on habitat fragmentation at model region of the lower Morava basin near Moravský Sv. Ján. Several fragments of floodplain woodland surrounded by agricultural lands differ in size and extent of isolation. We examined how these were related to species diversity, dispersal of taxons, representation of life forms and functional ecological groups. It was found that in terms of species dispersal increasing fragment area was associated with increasing percent cover of plants represented mainly by anemochorous, endochorous, hemerochorous and polychorous species. In terms of habitat these were represented by woodland and bush species, those of woodland edge, species of riparial zone and fallow lands, potentially synanthropous species. Percent cover of segetal flora significantly correlated with a fragment isolation, increasing with a distance from the nearest fragment. |
