Abstract

:
The aim of the present study is to update the checklist of vascular plants endemic to Mongolia using previous checklists, publications, herbarium collections, and field observations. The revised checklist includes 102 endemic taxa (95 species, five subspecies, and two nothospecies) from 43 genera and 19 families. The majority of endemic taxa were distributed in western and central Mongolia, and high endemic species richness was identified in four phytogeographical regions, namely Mongolian Altai, Khangai, Dzungarian Gobi, and Gobi Altai, which harbor 49, 27, 20, and 16 endemic taxa, respectively. For each endemic taxon, we compiled information about growth form, conservation status (if already assessed), phytogeographical distribution, and voucher specimens. Data on each taxon’s type specimen were also collected, and the majority of the type specimens were accessioned at the LE (58 taxa), MW (20 taxa), and UBA (7 taxa) herbaria.

1. Introduction

The term “endemism” is used in biogeography to refer to taxa that have restricted geographical distribution. The richness of a region’s endemic species is often cited as evidence to support the designation of an area as a diversity hotspot and is, therefore, critical for conservation management [1]. Mongolia is located in the mid-latitude (between 41°35′ N–52°09′ N and 87°44′ E–119°56′ E), covering approximately 1.6 million km2 and roughly equaling western and central Europe. As of 2021, approximately 3200 vascular plant species belonging to 684 genera and 112 families have been reported in Mongolia [2,3,4,5,6,7]. The area is not particularly speciose but, due to its geographical location at the junction of two subcontinents (northern and central Asia), harbors feature of multiple floras [8,9]: boreal (central Siberian–Daurian) in the northern part, Altai Mountain (Mid-Asian) in the western part, central Asian in the Gobi, deserts, and desert-steppes of the southern part, and ancient Mediterranean in the steppes and forest steppes in central and eastern Mongolia. Despite the fact that the Mongolian flora includes elements from various floristic regions, endemic plants in Mongolia are primarily represented by central Asian elements [10].
The identification of endemic species within a country’s territory is crucial [10]. Several studies have evaluated the endemic taxa of Mongolia. Grubov [11] compiled the first endemic plant checklist, which included 86 species, and Ulziikhutag [12] and Gubanov [13] provided revised lists of 145 and 143 species, respectively. More recently, Urgamal and Oyuntsetseg [14] published a list of 120 endemic species, which together accounted for 3.2% of the country’s flora. In addition, the geographical distribution, conservation status, and population genetics of endemic plant taxa in the high mountains of southern Mongolian were investigated by Wesche et al. [15,16], who reported that the highly isolated southern Mongolia dry mountains harbored several endemic species that should be targeted for conservation by the Mongolian government. Unfortunately, none of those endemic species were included in either the Mongolian Red Data Book [17] or the IUCN International Red List [15]. Therefore, compiling a list of endemic species and their corresponding conservation status is crucial for both regional and national conservation.
The aim of the present study was to update the checklist of endemic vascular plants of Mongolia using previous checklists, publications, herbarium collections, and field observation data between 2014 and 2020. As a result of thoroughly investigating species records, information about the locations of type specimens and the regional conservation statuses of endemic species were also compiled and reported.

2. Materials and Methods

Publications used to revise the checklist included the Checklist of Endemic Vascular Plants [11,12,13,14], Conspectus of the Vascular Plants of Mongolia [2,13,18,19], Flora of Khangay [20], Legumes of Mongolia [21], four volumes of the Flora of Mongolia [22,23,24,25], and five volumes of Plants of Central Asia—plant collections from China and Mongolia [26,27,28,29,30,31,32,33,34,35,36,37,38,39]. Recent (2014–2020) publications related to the discovery, description, and/or first records of taxa in Mongolia were also considered and included Nobis [30], German [19], Bekket et al. [31], Kechaykin and Kutsev [32], Kechaykin [33,34], Gundegmaa and Kechaykin [35], Yurtseva et al. [36], Erst et al. [37], Ovchinnikova and Korolyuk [38], Zhao et al. [39], Pyak and Pyak [40], Ovchinnikova [4,41], and Pyak et al. [42]. Publications related to a six-year field survey that resulted in addition of new taxa to the region’s flora [5,6,7,43,44,45,46,47,48,49,50,51,52] were also considered.
In the present study, endemic taxa were defined as vascular plant taxa that only occur within the borders of Mongolia, and sub-endemic species, which also occur in neighboring areas [11,12,19], were excluded from the analysis. After the list of endemic taxa was compiled, the distribution of each taxon was cross-checked using information from the Flora of China [53], the virtual guide of Mongolia [54], and various herbaria (ALTB, GLM, GWF, HAL, LE, MW, NS, OSBU, TK, P, UBA, and UBU; herbarium codes according to Thiers [55]). Information about the taxa’s type specimens was also retrieved from various herbaria, mainly from LE (http://en.herbariumle.ru/; accessed on 25 September 2021; Grubov [56]), MW (https://plant.depo.msu.ru/; accessed on 30 September 2021; Gubanov [57]), and UBA. The nomenclature follows POWO [58] and the original descriptions were checked using POWO and IPNI [59]. The conservation status (i.e., threat categories) of each taxon was also reported according to regional red lists [60,61,62]. Furthermore, the general distribution of each taxon among Mongolia’s phytogeographical regions was evaluated [2,13,18,47].

3. Results

The present study recognized a total of 102 taxa (including 95 species, five subspecies, and two nothospecies) that are currently endemic to Mongolia (Appendix A). The most endemic taxa-rich families were the Fabaceae (29 taxa), Asteraceae (21 taxa), Rosaceae (15 taxa), Ranunculaceae (9 taxa), and Boraginaceae (7 taxa), and each of the remaining 14 represented families included only one to four endemic taxa. Meanwhile, the most endemic taxa-rich genera were Astragalus (16 taxa), Potentilla (13 taxa), Oxytropis (11 taxa), Craniospermum (6 taxa), and Saussurea (5 taxa. However, no strictly endemic families or genera were identified. High endemic taxa richness was noted for four regions, including Mongolian Altai, Khangai, Gobi Altai, and Dzungarian Gobi, which harbored 49, 27, 22, and 20 endemic taxa, respectively (Figure 1). Each of the remaining regions harbored only one to fourteen endemic taxa.
The number of endemic species reported from Mongolia has also varied over the past decades. For example, 47 endemic taxa were reported between 1980 and 2000, and 28 taxa have been reported since 2010 (Figure 2A). Furthermore, most of the taxa’s type specimens, including holotype, paratype, and isotype specimens, were accessioned at LE and MW herbaria (Figure 2B).
Only 18 of the 102 taxa have been assessed for IUCN International Conservation Status. However, eight taxa were identified as critically endangered or endangered, and two species were assessed as vulnerable (Appendix A). During our field surveys, endemic taxa were photographed, which were mostly from type localities (Figure A1 and Figure A2).

4. Discussion

According to the critical revision of endemic vascular plants in Mongolia, 102 taxa were recognized as truly endemic to Mongolia. This is less than on the most recently published list [14], owing to the fact that 24 of the species included by Urgamal and Oyuntsetseg [14] are found to be occurring in the neighboring regions of China and Russia [37,63,64]. In addition, 18 endemic taxa are replaced by synonyms of other taxa [19,58], which are given in Appendix C. For example, Swertia banzragczii Sanchir was listed as endemic to Mongolia by Urgamal and Oyuntsetseg [14], but it was reported to occur in Xinjiang, China, by Chen et al. [65]. Furthermore, the new list also includes several newly described species, such as Stipa austromongolica M. Nobis [30], which were not included in earlier lists [2,14], because they were not yet recognized to occur in the local flora. Several species that have been newly described from western Mongolia [32,36,39,41,42] were added to the updated checklist as well.
Approximately 70% of the 102 endemic taxa are distributed in western and central Mongolia, particularly the Mongolian Altai, Dzungarian Gobi, Khangai, Depression of Great Lakes, and Gobi Altai regions (Figure 1). These regions include many montane habitats that likely harbor high species diversity as a result of their moist and diverse microclimate. Indeed, Gunin et al. [8] reported that the flora of high mountain areas in Mongolia is almost twice as rich as that of the lower elevation plains (up to 700 m a.s.l.). Wesche et al. [15] also reported that mountain ranges of the southeastern Gobi Altai, especially at high altitudes, have highly isolated plant populations and, not surprisingly, harbor a number of endemic species. This was proven by our study that 65% of the endemic taxa grow in the altitude range of 1700 to 3350 m. Many taxa found at high elevations have been proven to be ployploids, e.g., Artemisia [66], Taraxacum [67,68], Alchemilla [69], Potentilla [70,71], which accords with the general observation that perennial herbs from high elevations in temperate zones are frequently polyploids, which in turn is interpreted as an adaptation to harsh environments [72]. Due to the large size of phytogeographical regions, it is difficult to define the protection status of the endemic taxa they contain. Thus, further studies of the population sizes and isolation of endemic taxa are needed to designate and modify protected areas in the country.
According to the Red Lists, only 18% of endemic species have been assessed for conservation status [60,61,62], and almost 70% of species have not been assigned to an international-level IUCN category. A few studies have evaluated the conservation status of specific Mongolian endemic plants, such as Potentilla ikonnikovii Juz., Galitzkya macrocarpa (Ikonn.-Gal.) V.V.Botschantz, and Saussurea saichanensis Komarov ex Lipsch, and concluded that the species are in no immediate danger [15,16]. However, because many endemic plants are restricted to type specimen localities or have limited geographical ranges [14,47], special attention should be given to the species’ evaluation and protection.
During the last decades, researchers paid much attention to the floristic checklist, new records, and conservation status of vascular plants in Mongolia. However, more complete taxonomic revision based on morphology and molecular evidence is needed on the several largest genera such as Astragalus, Artemisia, Oxytropis, Potentilla, and Taraxacum, which contain a high number of taxa, including a number of endemic plants in Mongolia.
Many countries have recently updated and published the checklist of endemic vascular plants from European and Asian countries. In Asia, for example, China has the most endemic plants (over 16,000 taxa) [73], followed by Russia (over 2700 taxa) [74], Kazakhstan (over 760 taxa) [75], and South Korea (312 taxa) [76], as well as the Tian-Shan Mountains (871 taxa) belonging to Central Asian countries [77]. While in Europe, for example, Italy (1598 taxa) [78] has the highest endemic taxa, along with Spain (1488 taxa) [79], Greece (1435 taxa) [80], Croatia (349 taxa) [81], Austria (103 taxa) [82] and Czech Republic (82 taxa) [83]. Compared to the above-mentioned studies, the number of endemic plants in Mongolia (102 taxa, ca. 3% of the total flora) is not particularly high, which is due to the country’s dry and harsh climate (mean precipitation 50–350 mm/year) that affects the floral diversity and endemism [84].

5. Conclusions

Overall, the number of vascular plants including endemic taxa is not particularly rich in Mongolia compared with adjacent countries [85,86,87,88] However, bcause these endemic taxa contribute to local biodiversity, Mongolia has a high level of responsibility for their conservation. Unfortunately, a significant gap remains in the understanding and assessment of the taxas’ conservation status. Nevertheless, the present study could serve as a starting point for the systematic resolution of this problem. According to our results, endemic vascular plant species in Mongolia are primarily distributed in mountainous regions, which suggests that such areas should be prioritized for protection. Future research that accounts for population sizes and emerging threats is also needed to inform conservation efforts and protected area designation.
