The Schlänger Moor area is a nature reserve designated in 1960 by the Detmold regional council (NSG number LIP-003) in the west of the North Rhine-Westphalian community of Schlangen in the Lippe district in Germany .
location
The approximately eight hectares large nature reserve Schlänger Moor is one natural area to Hellweg Borde . It extends west of the Schlänger town center in the area of the Senne military training area , between Bundesstraße 1 in the east and Panzerringstraße in the west.
history
As early as 1959, around two hectares were placed under nature protection with the name “ Heidesumpf an der Strothe ”. With the expansion, the area was renamed Schlänger Moor at the suggestion of the Lippe Heimatbund in 1984 .
description
The Schlänger Moor protected area is described as a natural streambed stream bed with numerous steep banks, gravel banks, alder-ash floodplain forest, tall herbaceous meadows, intermediate moors, birch moors, moorland, ponds ( Luening'scher pond ), alder forests and oak and birch forests.
The importance of the Schlänger moor results in particular from the existing intermediate moor vegetation with numerous species typical of high moorland and the floodplain and swamp forests and reed beds as well as the naturally structured Strothebach section. All in all, it is a structurally rich stream floodplain complex with bog at the edge of the valley that is rarely found in natural areas.
Protection purpose
The main protection purpose is the maintenance and development of a partially moated brook floodplain with its different biotope complexes and specialized communities, in particular the intermediate moor, the birch moor forest, the alder swamp and the alluvial forest. The forest complex should be left to the succession .
Biotope types
In the Schlänger Moor protected area , the biotope types are “creek-accompanying alder forest”, “birch moor forest”, “scrub bushes”, “mixed alder forest with native deciduous tree species”, “alder marsh forest”, “mixed spruce forest with native deciduous tree species”, “wet fringe that accompanies the water body, or linear high perennial vegetation ”,“ Mixed conifer and birch forest ”,“ reed stock of tall species ”,“ pond ”,“ lowland stream ”and“ transitional moor, intermediate moor, spring moor ”.
Due to the variety of types in a relatively small area, there is a large variety of species: 226 different plant species have been identified.
