Abstract AR

أجري مسح لستة مواقع في ثلاثة أهوار رئيسة جنوب العراق (الحويزة و الجبايش و شرق الحمار) خلال عامي 2006 و 2007 بهدف دراسة استرجاع و توزيع النباتات المائية.

تم تسجيل 44 نوعا نباتيا منها نوع واحد دخيل هو Hydrilla verticillata تم العثور عليه بعد أغمار الاهوار الثلاثة.

سجل الحزاز Ricciocarpus natans لأول مرة في هور الجبايش بينما لوحظت نباتات Cyperus aucheri و Torulinium odoratum و عشب المثانة Utricularia autralis و الجريح Cladium marisicus في هور الحويزة لأول مرة في هذه الدراسة.

سجل أكبر عدد من النباتات المائية في هور الحويزة (35) بالمقارنة مع هور الجبايش (27) و هور شرق الحمار (24).

أظهرت الدراسة الحالية نسب استرجاع النباتات المائية و بلغت 97.22 % و 61.36% و 63.15 % في كل من هور الحويزة و الجبايش و شرق الحمار على التوالي.

Abstract EN

Ecological survey of six sites in three main restored marshes (Huwaiza, Cheapish and East Hammer) was carried out during 2006 and 2007 to study the re-establishment and distribution of aquatic macrophysics.

A total of 44 species were recorded, only 1 exotic (Hydrilla verticillata) was found in all three marshes after inundation.

Ricciocarpus natans (Bryophytes) was new record in Cheapish marsh, while Cyprus aucheri, Torulinium odoratum, bladderwort (Utricularia austral is) and saw grass (Cladium mariscus) were observed in Huwaiza marsh for the first time in this study.

The highest number of aquatic plants was registered in Huwaiza marsh (35) in comparison with Cheapish (27) and E.

Hammer marsh (24).

The present study showed that the aquatic macrophyte species restoration percentage were 97.22%, 61.36% and 63.15% in Huwaiza, Cheapish and E.

Hammer marsh respectively.
