Abstract

The paper presents modern data on the demographic structure and population size of C. calceolus on the territory of European Russia. The assessment of the species distribution and population size is based on the classification of the terrestrial ecoregions of the World. The long-term dynamics of the number and age structure (150 populations) of C. calceolus was revealed for the 20-year research period 1997-2020. It has been reliably determined that the number of generative plants is positively related to temperature indicators, while the number of pregenerative groups depends on humidity factors and negatively on temperature. Three types of basic age spectra were identified: 1) centered 3 : 10 : 47 : 40 (juvenile (j): immature (im): virginal (v): generative (g)), the most common in the European part of the Russian Federation (RF); 2) bimodal 15 : 26 : 33 : 26 (j: im: v: g), mainly found in the western regions; 3) right-sided 0 : 3 : 13 : 82 : 2 (j : im : v : g : s), which is steadily appears in the continental climate of the eastern regions of European Russia. The current baseline spectra of C. calceolus populations differ from the baseline spectrum of the species given in the 20th century. The base spectra reliable depends on ecological-phytocenotic plant community structure and abiotic features of habitats, it was shown using the scales of ecological indicator values.
