Das "Bilderbuch" zur Flora Wiens erscheint in einer zweiten, veränderten Auflage. Einige Fotos wurden durch bessere ersetzt, die Verbreitungskarten wurden mit neuen Funden ergänzt. Wien besitzt eine phantastische Artenvielfalt an Pflanzen und Tieren. Der Grund dafür ist das Zusammentreffen von verschiedenen Klimazonen. In Wien leben sowohl Alpenpflanzen als auch Arten aus den pannonischen Gebieten der Ungarischen Tiefebene. Begünstigt durch die gute Ausstattung Wiens mit Grünzonen, Naturschutzgebieten und sogar einem Nationalpark können in dieser Stadt mehr als 2400 Pflanzenarten gefunden werden. Die Pflanzenwelt Wiens enthält die häufigsten und die geschützten Pflanzenarten Wiens. Bilder, oft auch zusätzliche Detailbilder, Angaben zur Blütezeit und über wichtige Merkmale sollen die Bestimmung der Arten ermöglichen. Mit diesem Buch ist ein einfacher Einstieg in die Kenntnis der Pflanzen Wiens möglich. Die botanische Wissenschaft befindet sich in einer steten Entwicklung. Durch genetische Untersuchungen ändern sich die Abgrenzungen der Pflanzenfamilien oder Gattungen – und dadurch manchmal auch die Namen der Arten. Die deutschen und wissenschaftlichen Namen wurden mit der Exkursionsflora für Österreich, Liechtenstein und Südtirol abgeglichen, um bei weiteren, intensiveren Studien die Vergleichbarkeit zu gewährleisten. Als zusätzliche Ergänzungen werden einige häufig gepflanzte Bäume mit sehr charakteristischen Früchten gezeigt. Ein weiteres neues Kapitel beschäftigt sich mit einem aktuellen Problem des Naturschutzes – den alien species. Manche Arten sind zugewandert oder aus der Kultur entkommen, verdrängen die einheimischen Pflanzen und werden dadurch zu einem Problem.

Viola ×palmata L. (pro spec.), Viola sect Plagiostigma, originating from North AMERICA, was found in the centre of Vienna. It grows vigorously in stone fissures bearing many seeds developing from cleistogamous flowers, but no open‑pollinated flowers could be observed yet due to late season. The plants were tentatively identified by J. Danihelka, and the identification was confirmed by the late K. Blaxland.

August N e i l r e i c h , to whom this new scientific journal is dedicated, was an important Austrian botanist. He was born on December 12th, 1803 in Vienna, studied law, became doctor juris in 1827 and made a career as officer o f justice, becoming a renowned judge, entitled “Councillor o f the Superior Court” in 1850. Since 1831 he was engaged in studying the flora around Vienna and taught him self botany, one of his closest friends - and biographer - being Ludwig von Köchel, also a hobby botanist and naturalist, though becoming famous for his producing the “Köchel Catalogue” (o f M ozart’s compositions). In 1857 N e i l r e i c h retired because of illness (tuberculosis). His main botanical works are “Flora von W ien” [Flora of Vienna] (1846) and “Flora von Nieder-Oesterreich” [Flora of Lower Austria] (1857-1858). Due to large field experience N e i l r e i c h ’ s species concept is comparatively wide but includes carefully studied “varieties” He also made important and fundamental critical revisions to the study o f the flora of the whole Austrian Empire, and in more detail of Hungary and Croatia. N e i l r e i c h died on June 1st 1871.

... Despite gradually increasing synonymy by specialists since Brainerd [69], recent studies by HEB and collaborators are revealing many overlooked new species (including some local and regional endemics) and resurrecting previously synonymised species, making it is one of the more diverse subsectional lineages in the genus, and the second largest in the Western Hemisphere (minimum 38 species, possibly as many as 60). Viola communis Pollard thrives in lawns and fencerows, and a few species have been inadvertently introduced into Europe [73, [265][266][267][268]. Description.-Perennial ...

... To account for differences in vegetation productivity due to variations in vegetation structure and environmental conditions, we collected a sufficient number of reference points in greenspaces dominated by either grassland or tree cover (SI , Table A.1). Additionally, reference points were selected to represent the three main spatial units of the city: 'Cisdanubien' (i.e., hilly areas and former terraces of the Danube), 'Danube area' (i.e., alluvial plain/valley floors), and 'Transdanubien', (i.e., older valley floors). These spatial units differ in terms of their environmental, geomorphological, and urban-historical conditions (Adler & Mrkvicka, 2003; https://www.wien.gv.at/umweltgut/pu blic/). A total of 760 field observations were collected, with 367 reference points collected for unmanaged and 393 for managed vegetation (SI, Table A.1). ...
