Abstract
Adica park-forest is situated in Vukovar, in the far eastern part of the Republic of Croatia. The vascular flora of Adica has been researched for the first time during the vegetation period of 2014 when a total of 290 plant taxa were recorded (286 species and four subspecies) and classified into 203 genera and 77 families. The most numerous families are Poaceae (26 taxa), Fabaceae (25 taxa) and Asteraceae (21 taxa). In the life form spectrum hemicryptophytes dominate (39,4%), followed by therophytes (22%). Phytogeographical analysis shows the prevalence of plants that belong to the Eurasian floral element (31,4%) and plants of wide distribution (30,7%). In the investigated area of Adica eight strictly protected species and, according to the Red list of vascular flora of Croatia, one endangered, four vulnerable and four near threatened plant taxa were noted. The flora of Adica also consists of 11 invasive plants. At the same time, habitat mapping was conducted and consequently nine habitat types were recorded following the National habitat classification.
