Flora and vegetation of the Principality of Liechtenstein
The flora and vegetation of the Principality of Liechtenstein is very varied and species-rich due to the natural diversity for this relatively small area.
Natural area of the Principality of Liechtenstein
The land area of the Principality of Liechtenstein is around 160 km².
Landscape structure
The vegetation levels in Liechtenstein range from the lowlands to the alpine high altitudes. Hypsographically, the area extends from the Alpine Rhine valley floor with the lowest point in the northern Rhine Valley plain near Ruggell at an altitude of 430 meters to the Grauspitz on the southern border with Switzerland at an altitude of 2599 meters. About a quarter of the country's area is in the valley area. Two fifths of the land area is accounted for by the slopes on the Rhine valley side, from the foot of the Rhine valley to the foothills of the Rätikon massif at altitudes of over 2000 meters. About a third of the country's area lies behind the Rhine Valley watershed in the inner-Alpine region, with its lowest point at altitudes of around 890 meters in the Samina valley and its mountain peaks reaching altitudes of around 2500 meters.
The structure of Liechtenstein clearly shows three rooms that differ in climate, exposure and use with a great variety of landscapes in this small area:
The inner-alpine area of Liechtenstein consists of different terrain chambers , which mainly correspond to the catchment areas of the three main waters Valünabach , called Samina from the footbridge , Malbunbach and Valorschbach . The Samina collects most of the inner-Alpine surface water and discharges it into the Vorarlberger Ill .
The slopes on the Rhine Valley side are also richly structured. From the north between the steep walls of the Drei Schwestern massif to the south with the Lawenatal dominated by the Falknis massif , the gentle, late glacial Triesenberg landslide area pushes itself . To the south and north of it, the forest dominates the landscape. Halfway up this forest is only interrupted by individual agricultural terraces. Vertically, a multitude of rubble compartments at the foot of the slope are followed by rugged rock walls or deep cuts at higher altitudes (very clear in the case of the Three Sisters).
The valley area is divided into at least two areas. A narrow valley clearly bordered by the surrounding mountains stretches from Balzers to Schaan, the narrowest point of which - on the southern border - is barely more than 1.5 km wide. The mountains recede like a funnel north of Schaan and a wide plain extends.
The landslide area has many structured small spaces with hedges, woody plants and fruit trees in the transition to the valley floor. In the example, landslide gullies a clear transition from the woody portion to the river bed which is subject to the dynamics of the white water. Another example is the valley level of the Liechtenstein Unterland, which is clearly divided into landscape by the Eschnerberg.
In the Rhine Valley along the river and in the southern half of the country there are predominantly alluvial soils over clay and / or gravel and in the northern part of the country there is pure bog soils. The floodplain forests of the Rhine were largely cleared and now only take up almost 3% of the valley floor as gallery forests that are no longer flooded . The previously typical single-mowed, species-rich litter meadows have decreased significantly to only about 160 hectares.
In the mountains, limestone and dolomite predominate as the subsurface , and there is also carbonate Graubünden slate . There are only isolated and locally limited silicate rocks ( e.g. red sandstone , glauconite ).
climate
The Rhine valley plain and the west-exposed slopes are to be assigned to the submontane / montane-central European climate type. In these climatic conditions, the common beech forms the climax forests in suitable locations . The European beech would probably make up around 70% of the forest area. In Liechtenstein, the transition between the Atlantic-toned, damp and cool climate of the Lake Constance area and the more continental, dry and warm climate of the inner-Alpine dry island around Chur is noticeable (for example, the striking distribution limit of the European holly ( Ilex aquifolium ) on the southern border of the Principality of Liechtenstein). The annual average temperature in the valley is around 9 ° C. In the rain shadow of the Säntis massif, the main town Vaduz is a relatively dry island with around 1000 mm of annual precipitation; Adjacent to the north and south, the areas receive 1100 mm. The foehn, with around 40 foehn days per year, has a significant share in the relative favorable climate with the occurrence of extremely xerothermophilic plant species and communities .
Plant communities
Due to its natural spatial requirements (see above), natural vegetation in the Principality of Liechtenstein is potentially very different. There is a loss of primary biotopes and biodiversity , particularly in the intensive anthropogenic landscape of the Alpine Rhine Valley . In addition to intensive, technical agriculture , construction activities in the transport and settlement areas as well as the regulation and construction of water bodies for flood protection and drainage lead to the loss of near-natural habitat. There is a uniformization of the landscape with a dominance of the anthropogenically influenced, competitive plant communities in a severely disturbed cultural landscape. A large number of different plant communities occur in mostly small areas in the valley area. Almost half of these plant communities are degraded, these are mainly ruderal and segetal communities. This negative situation decreases with increasing altitude. Since the end of the World War, neophytes and heat-loving plant species in the climate-favored valley area have been able to keep up with the rapid changes and are increasingly spreading in biotopes such as litter meadows and reed beds . The original plant associations only occur sporadically or in protected areas. This is especially true for plant communities of water bodies or wetlands that suffer from changed hydrological conditions due to river barriers and drainage. The number of species on the Red List of Endangered Plants is by far the highest in these biotopes. The meager meadow areas are also being used more and more intensively in the mountainous regions as wasteland and in the valley areas. The area of the mountains was largely spared from industrialization and the economic changes. Despite the anthropogenic changes in the higher areas, the semi-extensive to semi-intensive cultivation there contributes to the preservation of biodiversity. The dangers of wasteland and the effects of tourism are to be rated higher in mountain areas than the dangers of intensification.
There are forest communities and many other plant communities .
The main occurrences of forest communities are in the montane level . A total of 40 forest communities were described by Schmider & Burnand in 1988 (the special forms, e.g. Pulmonario-Fagetum caricetosum albae, were not counted separately). The height distribution of the forest communities corresponds to 7% in the valley, 70% in the montane zone, 3% in the transition area to the subalpine area and 17.5% in the zone of the tree line.
There are 185 vegetation units in forest-free areas in the Principality of Liechtenstein, they are assigned to 22 classes. These are distributed in different frequencies over the four most important natural areas: 92 associations and plant communities occur in the valley, in the montane level of the Rhine Valley-side mountain slopes at altitudes of 500 to 1600 meters there are 30, in the mountains over 1600 meters 37 and in the various bodies of water 27 plant communities occur.

natural reserve
The protection of nature and landscape is a social concern that is formulated in the law for the protection of nature and landscape. The law of 23 May 1996 on the protection of nature and the landscape was enacted for the Principality of Liechtenstein .
Nature reserves
Nature reserves in Liechtenstein |
Ten nature reserves are protected by ordinance in Liechtenstein. The location and shape of these nature reserves can be viewed in the geodata portal of the Office for the Environment of the State Administration of the Principality of Liechtenstein.
- Äulehäg in Balzers
- It is a near-natural, re-irrigated “groundwater pouring” (this is a wet area that is fed purely by groundwater) with the accompanying trees and vegetation on the banks as relict vegetation of the former floodplain landscape of the Rhine.
- Birka in Moors
- It is a flat moor fragment with excavated peat puddles, individual trees typical of the location and a considerable number of species of aquatic plants .
- It was created by scouring the Rhine dam in 1927. This body of water is a habitat for valuable aquatic flora and fauna. The silting belt and the gallery forest edge with its species-rich herb layer are habitats for birds and small animals.
- The dry and humid rough meadows are home to around 280 species of plants, including 15 species of orchids. The rough meadows and pastures are framed by species-rich forest edges, hedges and individual trees. This richly structured landscape with diverse vegetation contains an equally diverse animal world with many rare species.
- Ruggeller Riet, municipality of Ruggell and Schellenberg
- The Ruggeller Riet and the Hasler Mahd are vegetation and cultural-historical important litter and moor meadow areas of international importance. The Riet cultural landscape is a flat moor and contains a rich and rare variety of plant communities, biotopes and landscape structures.
- Snail column and partial area in the Au in Ruggell
- The Schneckenäule area and the partial area in the Au consist of a sparse population of pines with individual pedunculate oaks and littered meadows of great natural and cultural-historical importance.
- Schwabbrünnen / Äscher, municipality of Eschen, Planken and Schaan
- The Schwabbrünnen / Äscher protected area is an important moor from a botanical and faunistic point of view with unique habitats for rare animal populations and plant communities. Ponds, springs, sintered areas , streams and ditches, forest areas and the mud collectors increase the diversity of biotopes and ecological niches.
- This area includes a pond landscape consisting of open water areas of different depths, various forms of the shore zones and natural forest areas.
- Wisanels in Moors
- The Wisanels protected area is the last flat moor plot with remnants of the Siberian iris in Moors.
- Mareewiesen in Vaduz
- It is a dry, lean site with a variety of rare and protected plant species, including some orchid species.
Mushroom and plant species in Liechtenstein
Vascular plant species are only partially listed in the Red List below, as a total of 1531 species occur in the area. The types of moss are listed here.
Mosses
Limestone mosses are most common in Liechtenstein . Types of moss that thrive best on acidic substrates only occur on forest and heather soils rich in raw humus , rotten wood, erratic blocks (= erratic boulders ) or sandstones containing silicate . In Liechtenstein, moss species were most common in parts of the Ruggeller- and Schellenberger-Rietes , in the remains of the floodplain forests in the valley area, on the Eschnerberg (Vordere Gantenstein), in the Lutzengütle and Malanserwald , on the Gutenberg castle hill , in the Mälsner Allmend , in the Ellholz in Balzers , in the mountain forests in the lower Saminatal , on the wooded west and east slopes of the red sandstone area between Krüppel and Heubühl , on the Sareiser ridge, on the summit plateau of the Augstenberg , in the swampy and water-rich terrain of Weiherboden / Fluh and Sass , found in the ridge areas of Plasteikopf , Demmerahöhe and Grauspitz . Many species of moss live as epiphytes in Liechtenstein .
In 2000, Hans-Peter Senn listed 100 species of liverworts (Hepaticae) and 340 species of mosses (Musci):

Mushrooms
In 2004 a list of the so-called “large mushrooms”, ie mushroom species that can be seen in the landscape with the naked eye, was drawn up. The well-known edible and poison mushrooms are important. 145 genera with a total of 313 species or subspecies Ascomycetes and 288 genera with a total of 1392 species or subspecies Basidiomycetes were collected in Liechtenstein . (Species and information on the respective species in Prongué 2004)
Red lists
Red lists of endangered species were drawn up. There is a classification that largely follows the IUCN classification in order to be comparable . The category R = "Rare" has been added, because the country is so small, there are many plant species that occur naturally only in a few locations, but are not endangered in their populations due to their habitat :
- RE = "regionally extinct" = "extinct in the Principality of Liechtenstein": Species are extinct or lost if reference is made in the area of distribution to which historical information is available, but no recent finds are available at the time of monitoring. It is believed that these populations are extinct.
- CR = "critically endangered" = "threatened with extinction": There are only one or two known sites and there are possible risk factors, such as changes in use or abandonment, there are only a few sites (a maximum of five) and there has been a strong decline in the population or they are very small, isolated stocks.
- EN = "endangered" = "highly endangered": There are only one or two known sites, hazard factors cannot be completely ruled out, for example changes in the groundwater level in the nature reserves, there are only three or four known sites, possible hazard factors (e.g. change of use, - task) are available, there are several known sites (up to a maximum of ten) and there has been a strong decline in the population.
- VU = "vulnerable" = "vulnerable" = formerly "rare": There are only a few known sites, risk factors cannot be completely ruled out, at least at partial sites. There are several sites (a maximum of ten) and a population decrease has taken place.
- R = "extremely rare (not endangered)": There are only a few known sites, risk factors are not recognizable at the time of monitoring. They have always been extremely rare or very locally occurring species. There is no noticeable decline or threat. However, due to their rarity, these species can be suddenly exterminated or significantly decimated by unforeseeable influences.
Red list of endangered and rare vascular plants of the Principality of Liechtenstein
There are 1531 vascular plant species in the Principality of Liechtenstein . Of these, 379 species, or almost 25%, were placed on the Red List of threatened and rare vascular plants in the Principality of Liechtenstein. The red list of endangered and rare vascular plants of the Principality of Liechtenstein was published for the first time in 1984 and the last time in 2006 (as of 2019).
