FIELD TRIP SITES All sites are situated in Asveja Regional Park. The Park was established in 1992 to conserve the lake system of Asveja, its natural and cultural-historical values. The area of the Park was formed by the last glacier, on elevations of terminal moraines. Its territory is characterized by an exceptional abundance of glacial formations. The most important natural accent of the Park – lake Asveja, the longest lake in Lithuania. Apart from Asveja, there are 30 lakes in the Park. Half of the Park’s territory is occupied by forests comprising a wide variety of stands. Valley of the Žverna rivulet Lithuania, Asveja Regional Park, Molėtai district, Dubingiai forest district, forest squares No 33–31, 55 o 03’ N 25 o 34’E Broad-leaved forest in a valley of a rivulet. North of the road – Žverna hydrographic Sanctuary, established for conservation of natural features of the forest rivulet (0.8 km long) and its valley. Woodland key habitats of broad-leaved forests and wetland forests type. Stands of old oaks (Quercus robur) and presence of deadwood make good habitat for lichens and fungi. No detailed lichenological or mycological studies performed there, though several noteworthy species were recorded from this area: Bulgaria inquinans, Agonimia allobata, Calicium adspersum, Cliostomum corrugatum, Sclerophora coniophaea. Blužnėnai forest Lithuania, Asveja Regional Park, Švenčionys district, Purviniškiai forest district, forest squares No 135, 136, 139, 140, 789, 55 o 00’ N 25 o 39’E Wetland forest with alders (Alnus glutinosa) and spruces (Picea abies), inspersed with patches of old oak (Quercus robur) stands. Woodland key habitat of wetland forest type. The presence of deadwood and humid microclimate create good conditions for fungi or lichens, but the area has never been studied in detail. Few noteworthy lichens are known from this forest: Chaenotheca chlorella, Arthonia arthonioides, Lobaria pulmonaria. Valley of Jurkiškis and Stirnelė (Melnyčėlė) rivulets Lithuania, Asveja Regional Park, Molėtai district, Dubingiai forest district, forest squares No 1071, 1077, 1124, between the lakes Asveja and Suoselis, 55 o 04’ N 25 o 25’E Valley of two confluent rivulets – Stirnelė (1.3 km length) and Jurkiškis (other name – Melnyčėlė, 1.2 km length). The beds of the rivulets are stony, with numerous boulders bearing a comparatively rich aquatic lichen flora, including Red Data Book species Leptogium lichenoides. Steep and high slopes are overgrown with deciduous stands where old trees (especially Fraxinus excelsior) host noteworthy calicioid lichens including Sclerophora farinacea and Chaenotheca cinerea. Mycologically the area has not been studied.
Alternative trip: Šakymas Strict Nature Reserve Lithuania, Asveja Regional Park, Molėtai district, Dubingiai forest district, forest squares 65, 66, 70, 71, 55 o 02’ N 25 o 29’E Strict Nature Reserve (141 ha area) with no management since 1995. It is intended for conservation of old deciduous forest and specifically – oak stands (Quercus robur). Oldgrowth hardwood forest stands of oaks and groups of old ashes (Fraxinus excelsior) with mosaic of fens and slopes overgrown by pines (Pinus sylvestris) make habitats for a number of rare and threatened organisms: plants (299 species, including 8 Red Data Book species), birds and lichens, e. g.: Nephroma parile, Biatoridium monasteriense, Sclerophora coniophaea, Fellhanera gyrophorica, Leptogium teretiusculum. It bears one of the largest populations of Lobaria pulmonaria in Lithuania.
