PICEA OMORIKA IN ITS NATURAL HABITAT1

PHILIP WARDLE

The paper, which is based on a visit to Bosnia in 1954 and on the literature available, describes in detail ten of the principal surviving sites or stations of Picea omorika (Pancic) Bolle in the Dinaric Alps and discusses the relationship of the tree to its present restricted environment. The main conclusions are that the spruce, which is a relic in the flora of the Balkan Peninsula, succumbs to competition with other species and is poorly adapted to its present environment but holds its own when competition is absent as on north-facing cliffs or screes or where it has regenerated itself after fire or exploitation.
