Juncus acutus L.Sharp Rush, DE: Stechende BinseSlo.: ostro loje, ostri loekDat.: June 20. 2010Lat.: 44.39611 Long.: 14.80006Code: Bot_431/2010_IMG0870Habitat: a few meters from sea shore, partly salt march; sandy calcareous ground; full sun; elevation 1 m (3 feet); average precipitations ~ 900 mm/year, average temperature 12-14 deg C, (sub)Mediterranean phytogeographical region. Substratum: soil among sea shore pebbles. Place: Slatinica bay, east shore of the island Olib, Kvarner bay, Adriatic Sea, Croatia EC.Comment: Juncus acutus is a tall (up to 1.8 m), robust plant quite easy to recognize in spite of the fact that genus Juncus includes many, many species. It is a warmth loving Mediterranean plant growing in all countries around Mediterranean Sea (Ref.2). In Slovenia it is quite rare and restricted exclusively to Adriatic Sea shore (Ref.: 5). The plant can be recognized by its notable size, densely tufted habit and firm, basal, sharply pointed and longer than flower stems leaves. Reddish-brown flowers are interesting when observed from close (hand lens). The pictures show the plant in seeds (capsules). A quite remarkable member of Juncus genus!Ref.:(1) A.
