5. FOREST RESERVES ON THE LIMITS OF THE RANGES OF DISTRIBUTION OF VARIOUS TREES SPECIES. These reserves are particularly interesting for these species of forest trees which, as for example Picea abies, have on the territories of Poland 2 ranges (a lowland one — northwestern regions, and a highland one), or when across the country passes the eastern frontier of the species range (Quercus petraea, Abies alba, Fagus silvatica). Populations of these species occur most commonly in groups or as individuals scattered as small pure stands or mixed with other species. These reserves can have an importance for the study of tree genetics or silviculture. Particularly many reserves were made for the protection of Abies alba, which is known as a mountain species or even a high elevation species, where as in our country it enters forest stands in the uplands of the central part of the country. For the protection of external stands of fir. the following reserves were made: »Jodly Ostrzeszowskie« 18,96 ha (56) Forest District Kalisz; »Olbina« (57) Forest District Brzeziny with an area of 16,5 ha; »Molenda« (58) Forest District Rydzyny with an area of 143 ha, where fir grows together with oak, pine and spruce; »Kobiele Wielkie« 63,9 ha (59) Forest District Kobiele Wielkie, where fir aged 100 year is mixed with oak and a small quantity of other species; »Jata« (60) Forest District Krynszczak, with an area of 335,2 ha, where the age of trees is up to 140 years, and also in the same Forest District the »Topör« reserve (61) 56,5 ha in area where fir reaches 120 years in age. An extreme stand of fir is being protected in the »Jedlina« reserve 45,64 ha (62) of the Minsk Mazowiecki Forest District where the age of trees is as much as 160 years. For the protection of valuable external stands of spruce reserves were made in »Okalewo« (63), Forest District Skrwilno with an area of 7 ha, where the spruce occurs together with beech; in which a outlier of spruce outside its continous range is being protected. Reserves were also made for the protection of external stands of spruce in »Studnica« 57,8 ha (64), Forest Districts Rychtal; »Niwa« (65) with an area of 17,8 ha, near Kepno; »Krupa« (13,6 ha) (66) near Oströw Wielkopolski and in the Kurpiowska Forest in the Forest District Myszyniec (67). Populations of Fagus silvatica at the eastern extremity of the species range are being protected in the Gdansk District »Buki Mierzei Wislanej« reserve 5,92 ha (68) in the Forest District Stegna; »Buki Mierzei Elbaskiej« 92,1 ha, Forest Districts Elblag (69); in the Bydgoszcz District, »Jamy« reserve (70); in the Olztyn District »Bukowy« reserve (71) with an area of 8,32 ha and »Sadlowo« reserve 24,7 ha (72) which has the most extremal stands in the north-eastern direction. In the Poznan District, beech population are being protected in the Forest Direction Drawa (73), Katy (74), — Sierakow (75) and in the Lodz District in the Forest District Brzeziny (76). Reserve of the most eastern stands of Quercus petraea were made in »Lipiny« 24,5 ha (77), in The Bialowieza Forest where it grows together with Q. robur and in the Lublin District »Bachus« in the Forest Districts Chelm 52,9 ha (78) and »Kozlowka« 41 ha (79) the latter being a most valuable reserve. |
