Slo.: apnenka - syn.: Nephrodium robertianum (Hoffm.) Prantl, Lastrea obtusifolia (Schrank) Janchen - Habitat: light mixed forest, modestly inclined mountain slope, southeast aspect; colluvial, skeletal, calcareous ground, half shade, relatively warm and dry place; average precipitations ~ 3.000 mm/year, average temperature 7-9 deg C, elevation 595 m (1.950 feet), alpine phytogeographical region. - Substratum: forest soil. - Comment: Gymnocarpium robertianum is a common fern in Slovenia; hence it is easy to find. It grows everywhere in the Alps and in almost all other European mountains also in low elevations. However, there exist two species - Gymnocarpium robertianum and Gymnocarpium dryopteris, both common and wide spread, which are very similar in appearance. Gymnocarpium robertianum loves basic, calcareous ground, while Gymnocarpium dryopteris prefers acid ground. Distinguishing both types of ground is not always a simple task for a layman and therefore usually not a handy characteristics for separation of both species. Fortunately there exists another difference, which is a clear-cut trait. Leaf stalks and underside of Gymnocarpium robertianum are covered by small but conspicuous glandulous hairs (see Picture 7b) while Gymnocarpium dryopteris has none. - Ref.: (1) M.A. Fischer, W.

Slo.: alpska prianica - syn.: Cystopteris fragilis ssp. alpina, Cystopteris fragilis ssp. regia (L.) Desv., Cystopteris regia, Cystopteris crispa. - Habitat: Crevices of a medium sized limestone boulder, among rocks on open mountain pasture; skeletal, calcareous ground; southwest aspect, open place, full sun, exposed to direct rain and wind; average precipitations ~ 3.000 mm/year, average temperature about 0 deg C, elevation 2.040 m (6.700 feet), alpine phytogeographical region. Substratum: soil in crevices and among rocks or scree. Comment: Cystopteris alpina is quite a common plant in Slovenian Alps. It's not difficult to spot it among rocks, in rock crevices and sometimes on scree slops. It can be also found in the whole Alps and other European mountains, albeit only in subalpine and alpine elevations above tree line. In spite of this its taxonomy is not yet agreed upon. Cystopteris alpina belongs to Cystopteris fragilis aggregate, a group of similar plants, which are not yet sufficiently researched in Slovenia (Ref.:3).
