  • Disclaimer
    InfoFlora compiles information on protected species as accurately as possible, taking it from the respective cantonal laws. In some cases, however, it was not possible to use the plant names as listed in the original text, but an interpretation of their taxonomy or nomenclature was necessary. The exact meaning of the categories „completely protected“ and „partially protected“ differs among the cantons.

    InfoFlora cannot guarantee that the information on the protection status is correct and complete. In case of doubts, we recommend to look up the texts of the respective cantonal law.

Threats and measures

Sippe nur noch in Botanischen Gärten vorhanden


Zu dieser Unterart wäre eine genauere Untersuchung im Rahmen einer Bachelor
.Masterarbeit sinnvoll. Besonders das Material in botanischen Gärten sollte genetisch untersucht werden. Ex-situ-Vermehrung möglichst indigenen Pflanzenmaterials in Botanischen Gärten
Wiederansiedlungen in geeigneten Strandrasen an den ursprünglichen Fundstellen
Erhaltung aller noch bestehenden Strandrasen.

Eutrophierung (Algenwachstum führte infolge des Wellenschlags zur Lockerung des Wurzelbereiches)


Gewässerschutz gewährleisten (die Wasserqualität wäre heute wieder vorhanden)
Renaturierung von Strandrasen und Neu- schaffung von flachen Uferkiesflächen für Wiederansiedlungen

Treib-, Schwemmgut


Vorsichtig entfernen
falls notwendig mechanischen Schutz installieren

Konkurrenz (Phalaris arundinacea, Phragmites australis, Agrostis stolonifera, Carex acuta, C. elata; bei den drei letzten nützt die Mahd nichts!)


Einzelpflanzen ausreissen (P. arundinacea, C. acuta)
zweimal pro Jahr mähen (P. australis. P. arundinacea, flächig nur falls gefroren)
Soden entfernen (A. stolonifera)
aushacken (C. elata)

Lagerfeuer, Verbrennen von Mähgut direkt am Strand


Mähgut immer entfernen, keine Feuer im direkten Strandbereich

Verbuschung, Beschattung, Laubfall


Entbuschen
auslichten (z. B. aufwachsende Kopfweiden)

Intensive touristische Nutzung (Baden, Surfen/Segeln, Camping)


Schutzgebiete
Ansiedlungsbereiche z. T. einzäunen oder absperren, dort kein Badebetrieb
