ABSTRACT
A new locality of the rare pteridophyte Ophioglossum vulgatum was found in the Radziejowa
range of the Beskid Sądecki Mts in 2016. It was situated on the edge of a mountain alkaline fen, from
where the only known Polish locality of Primula farinosa was described (ATPOL square EG3432) and
where active conservation of this species is implemented. The population of O. vulgatum comprises 28
individuals; 13 of them developed sporophyl shoots. The measures undertaken to protect P. farinosa should
support the survival of O. vulgatum as well.
