TY - JOUR A1 - Haveman, Rense T1 - Phytosociological notes on hedges in South Ayrshire, Scotland JF - Forum Geobotanicum N2 - On the basis of four relevées of hedges around Straiton en Dailly in South Ayrshire, Scotland, some features of hedges are discussed. On the basis of the brambles, the vegetation of these hedges can be assigned to the Pruno-Rubion sprengelii, which comprises the bramble scrubs of circumneutral and nutrient rich soils in West Europe (Haveman et al. 2017, Haveman & de Ronde 2019). Until now, this alliance was thought to be restricted to the northwestern edge of the European continent, but based on these relevées and the known distribution area of Rubus nemoralis and Rubus polyanthemus, both characteristic for the Pruno-Rubion sprengelii, large parts of North England and Scotland have to be included in the distribution area of the alliance. The Pruno-Rubion sprengelii is optimally developed in rather narrow structures, like hedges, which are pruned every year. Here, brambles and herbs alike can grow with and under the shrubs, facilitated by the light that reaches large parts of the ground. Where the economic base of hedges perishes, they are not longer maintained, and the shrubs can grow out to their natural proportions. This changes the amount of light reaching the surface in the inner parts of the thicket, changing the competition between the species. The brambles as well as the herbs are displaced to the outer edges of the scrub, and the vegetation "dissociates" in a high-growing scrub, a fore-mantle ("cuff") with brambles, and a fringe with perennial herbs. These elements can hardly ever be assigned to the Pruno-Rubion anymore. The Pruno-Rubion sprengelii in optima forma is a scrub in which the three elements (shrubs, brambles, and herbs) grow closely intertwined. This is rarely found in natural landscapes, and thus the alliance is a typical element of the old farmer landscape. What is more: the typical species of the alliance, like Rubus nemoralis and R. polyanthemus, could only evolve after the landscape was opened by farmers in the last six millennia (Matzke-Hajek 1997), giving way to Rubus ulmifolius to expand its distribution area. This caused an explosion of hybrids which stabilised through apomixis into the wealth of Rubus species inhibiting the West European landscape nowadays (Sochor et al. 2015). Many of these species have their original home in a man-made landscape. Therefore, the Pruno-Rubion sprengelii can be characterised as a "farmers alliance" pur sang.

Charakteristische Merkmale sind 3–4(5)-zählige Blätter mit herab gekrümmten rundlichen bis breit obovaten Endblättchen und breitovalen Seitenblättchen, die eine völlig unbehaarte, lichtgrüne, mattglänzende Blattoberfläche besitzen mit kontrastierender hell grünlich-grauer, samtig behaarter Blattunterseite. Die überwiegend rundlichen bis stumpf kantigen, lichtgrünen bis rötlich überlaufenen Schösslinge sind unbehaart und spärlich mit kurzen (<4mm) nadelförmigen Stacheln und wenigen Stieldrüsen besetzt. R. viridilucidus entwickelt zusätzlich zu den Blütenzweigen der zweijährigen Schösslinge (Ausbreitungsschösslinge) einen besonderen blühenden 0,8 bis 1,6 m langen Schösslingstyp aus, den Rispenschössling, der direkt aus dem Wurzelstock entspringt und terminal in eine Blütenrispe ausläuft. Bei R. viridilucidus sind zwei verschiedene Typen von Rispenschösslingen ausgebildet. Die Sippe wächst bevorzugt auf gestörten Flächen wie Brachen, Straßenrändern, Lagerplätzen, Weinbergrändern und kann sich mit 1–2 m jährlichem Zuwachs (Satellitenbildauswertung, Vermessungen vor Ort) schnell ausbreiten. Die bekannt gewordenen Fundstellen erstrecken sich vom nördlichen Baden-Württemberg bis in den nördlichsten Teil von Bayern (Rhön). N2 - Rubus viridilucidus Drenckhahn is a new member of the Rubus section Corylifolii, series Subcanescentes, with an average tetraploid set of chromosomes (2n=28) and a genome size of 1.49 pg that matches the genome size of the related species of the series Subcanescentes R. scabrosus, R. fasciculatiformis and R. fasciculatus (1.52–1.54 pg). This species is distinguished by 3 to 4(5)-nate leaves with down curved roundish to broad obovate terminal and broad lateral leaflets with lucid-green glabrous upper side and light greenish grey, velvety pubescent lower side. Stems are roundish to obtusely angled, glabrous, green to reddish coloured, and armed sparsely with short, needle-like prickles (<4mm) and stalked glands. R. viridilucidus develops a second type of stem – denoted as panicle shoot – that is 0.8–1.6 m long, emerges directly from the rootstock and terminates apically in an inflorescence. Panicle shoots occur in R. viridilucidus in two varieties. The species prefers fallow land, quarries, road sides and margins of vineyards. It has a remarkable capability of propagation (about 1–2 m/year) as documented on the basis of satellite image (Google Earth) in combination with on-site surveys. The distribution area of R. viridilucidus, known so far, extends from Northern Baden-Württemberg to the most northern edge of Bavaria (Rhön mountains).

Stem leaves are 5-foliolate, digitate to weakly pedate with elongated, obovate acuminate terminal leaflets, adpressed hairy upper side and light green shimmering, softly hairy under side. Stems are arching (up to 2 m) partly climbing, obtuse-angled, densely hairy and glandular, gray green to dull brown, armed with 10(3–21) /5cm straight slender prickles, mostly 30-45º declining, 4.6(3-7)mm long. Pedicles of inflorescence are densely hairy (patent and partly adpressed), armed with 2–4 (per cm) slender patent to slightly curved prickles (1–2 mm long) and studded with numerous stalked glands (0.3–0.5 mm long) and some bristles. The species tolerates shadow and prefers moist soil. The type locality is probably the species’ site of introduction or genesis. It is located west of the town Garding on the North Frisian peninsula of Eiderstedt (several hundred shrubs), where several non-native Rubus species were probably introduced in the course of reforestation in 1970. Rubus admirabilis spreads south to the town of Heide in Dithmarschen and north to the island of Amrum (maximal range diameter of 70 km) and seems to be in an expansive phase. N2 - Rubus admirabilis Drenckhahn ist eine tetraploide neue Brombeerart der Rubus-Sektion Rubus, Serie Vestiti. Die Stängelblätter sind 5-zählig, hand- bis schwach fußförmig geteilt mit länglich obovaten, zugespitzen Endblättchen und anliegend behaarter Oberseite und hellgrün schimmernder, fühlbar weich behaarter Unterseite. Die Schösslinge sind mäßig bogig (bis zu 2m), teilweise kletternd, stumpfwinklig, graugrün bis stumpfbraun, dicht behaart mit zahlreichen gestielten Drüsen und Borsten. Stachel: 7−15/5 cm, schlank, 4−6mm lang, gerade, überwiegend 30-45º geneigt. Die Blütenstiele sind dicht behaart (abstehend und teilweise anliegend), mit 2−4/cm schlanken, geraden bis leicht gekrümmten Stachelchen (1−2 mm lang) und zahlreichen gestielten Drüsen (0,3−0,5 mm lang) sowie einigen Borsten. Die Art ist schattentolerant und bevorzugt feuchte Böden. Der Typusfundort ist wahrscheinlich der Ansiedlungs- oder Ursprungsort der Art. Er liegt westlich der Stadt Garding auf der nordfriesischen Halbinsel Eiderstedt (mehrere hundert Sträucher und Gebüsche). Dort wurden im Zuge einer Aufforstung 1970 mehrere nichtheimische Brombeerarten eingeschleppt. Rubus admirabilis hat sich südlich bis Heide in Dithmarschen und nördlich bis Amrum ausgebreitet (maximaler Arealdurchmesser von 70 km) und befindet sich in einer expansiven Phase.
