Orobanche teucrii Holandre, syn.: Orobanche atrorubens SchultzGermander Broomrape, DE: Gamander-Wrger, Gamander-SommerwurzSlo.: vrednikov pojalnikLat.: 46.36069 Long.: 13.70193Dat: May 28. 2016 (macro)Code: Bot_964/2016_DSC5618Picture file names: from Orobanche-teucrii_raw_5 to Orobanche-teucrii_raw_8,Habitat: dry grassland, mountain pasture; slightly inclined terrain at the foot of a mountain, southeast aspect; shallow soil layer on colluvial, calcareous, skeletal ground; full sun, relatively warm place, elevation 610 m (2.000 feet); average precipitations ~ 3.000 mm/year, average temperature 7-9 deg C, alpine phytogeographical region. Substratum: soil.Place: Lower Trenta valley, between villages Soa and Trenta, right bank of river Soa, Na Melu place, next to cottage Trenta 2b, East Julian Alps, Posoje, Slovenia EC.Comment: Orobanche teucrii is a rare, sporadic and hence not very well known plant. It grows manly in Central Europe from low land to subalpine elevations. One can find it in the Alps and surrounding regions from the Pyrenees to the Carpathians. Flora Alpina (Ref.: 5) knows it also from the Apennines while Kreutz's Orobanche monograph (Ref.:1) disagree with this statement. In Slovenian key (Ref.:4) it is marked as 'insufficiently known' plant. Orobanche teucrii is parasitic exclusively on genus Teucrium species, especially on Teucrium chamaedrys and Teucrium montanum. This and the fact that it is one of the most early blooming species of the genus Orobanche helps a lot in determination. It grows mainly in dry grassland and stony places. Generally it is quite a small plant among other mostly bigger Orobanche species, with few but relatively large flowers. Distinctive is also dark, brown-red-(orange) two lobed stigma. On this pasture both Teucrium chamaedrys and Teucrium montanum are common. I found a few more Orobanche teucrii plants on it but all of them grew within (mini)'bushes' of Teucrium chamaedrys. None could be associated with Teucrium montanum.Ref.:(1) C.A.J.

Orobanche laserpitii-sileris Reut. ex Jord.Laserpitium Broomrape, DE: Laserkraut-Sommerwurz, Bergkmmel-Sommerwurz, Laserkraut-WrgerSlo.: jelenovev pojalnikDat.: July 18. 2016Lat.: 46.27354 Long.: 13.46208Code: Bot_989/2016_DSC3801Habitat: grassy and herbaceous, steep mountain slope, south-southwest aspect; roadside of a dirt road/track; calcareous, stony and gravely ground; full sun, warm and dry place; elevation 1.285 m (4.200 feet); average precipitations ~ 3.000 mm/year, average temperature 3-5 deg C, alpine phytogeographical region.Substratum: soil.Place: Breginjski kot, southwest slopes of Mt. Kobariki Stol ridge, about 100 m before the last switchback (upwards) of the south road from village Sedlo to Planina Boca, East Julian Alps, Posoje, Slovenia EC. Comment: Orobanche laserpitii-sileris is a beautiful, very rare and highly endangered parasitic plant. Its distribution is limited to scattered montane and subalpine places of central and south Alps and of mountains in western part of Balkan Peninsula (southward to Macedonia). In addition to these, it can be found also in a single, small region in Pyrenees. The plant's eye-catching habitus supports its status of a rare plant in contrast to many small, pale colored, inconspicuous 'rare' species, which are actually more overlooked than truly rare. Orobanche laserpitii-sileris is a very stout, sometimes up to 80 cm tall, conspicuously reddish-yellowish colored plant, visually sharply contrasting to freshly blue-green leaves of its host laserwort (Laserpitium siler), which is also a conspicuous, large and easy to identify plant (even based on its leaves only). Southwest slops of Mt. Kobariki Stol ridge seem to be an ideal habitat for this species of broomrapes. Extensive, sunny, warm and dry mountain slopes of herbaceous vegetation on calcareous, stony and gravelly ground are heavily overgrown with Laserpitium siler. On some places this species builds stands almost in monoculture. Hence it is sometimes considered as a kind of treat to biodiversity of these mountain slopes, although it is not an aggressive introduced plant. Nevertheless, the abundance of the host makes the probability that the seeds of Orobanche laserpitii-sileris come in immediate, direct contact with roots of the host relatively high. Namely this is a requirement that the seeds of broomrapes germinate at all. Description of the find: plant about 30 cm tall; corolla (three measured) 28, 27, 29 mm long; the bracts are as long or slightly shorter than corolla; no bracteoles found; the calyx consisting of two bifid, slightly unequally bidentate, oval halves, which are fused to about 50% of their length, their total length is about 65% of corolla length; the stamens are inserted about 5 mm above the base of the corolla tube; its base is honey-yellow on inner side; stamens are hairy up to about 2/3 of their length and sparsely glandular-pubescent below the anthers; the style is glandular-pubescent in the upper part below the stigma; ovary is glabrous and yellow at the base.
