( A n o n y m u s 2000). Abbreviations of book titles follow the list given in Flora
Europaea ( T u t i n et al. 1993), those of journals follow Botanico-Periodicum-Hun-
tianum ( L a w r e n c e etal. 1968) and B-P-H/S ( B r i d s o n 1991). For publications
omitted from these works, title abbreviations follow those proposed by H o l u b et
al. (1978) and H r o u d a et al. (1978). In the distribution sections (Rozsirenie na
Slovensku), citations of literature published up to 1952 follow F u t a k et D o m i n
(1960), sources from 1953 onwards were cited as mentioned above.
Geographical distribution and lists of localities are presented according to the
widely adopted phytogeographical division of Slovakia ( F u t a k 1980). In compar
ison with the original division by F u t a k (1966), some new geographical names
were taken into account (see the map in Flora of Slovakia IV/1 by B e r t o v a 1984).
For a better use of this issue, the adopted phytogeographical division is given also
here, and can be found following the Introduction. On the inner side of the book-
jackets, a map illustrating the phytogeographical districts is shown. The names of
towns and villages are given according to Directory of the towns and communes of
the Slovak Republic ( A n o n y m u s 2002), the names of geographical entities are
taken from "Kartograficke informacie" ( K o l a r i k o v a et M a j t a n , vol. 10-12,
1979a, 1979b, 1981) and from available geographical nomenclatures. For more
accurate location and better orientation, localities are specified in the following
order: name of town, village or other type of place (settlement, court, mill, etc.),
geomorphological entity (hill, mount, river), in some cases also orientation (E, W,
N, S). In mountainous phytogeographical districts the name of the nearest town or
village is generally omitted.
The present issue Flora Slovenska V/3 is the result of research conducted within
the framework of the project "Diversity of the flora of Slovakia with special at
tention to the trees", with the contribution of other co-operating authors. The Re
search and Development Support Agency (APVV, Agentiira na podporu vyskumu
a vyvoja; grant no. 51-000702, partly also grant no. 51-009202) and the Scientific
and Technical Authors Society (SAVOL, Spolocnosf autorov vedeckej a odbornej
literatury), both Bratislava, Slovakia, are gratefully acknowledged for financial
support.
