| On ten localities where Leucojum aestivum occurs, vegetation and soil profile were described, the length of leaves and flower stalks was measured, and the number of flowers per inflorescence was counted. The accompanying species were characteristic for Convolvuletalia-, Phragmitetalia and Magnocaricetalia- or Molinietalia-vegetations. On the three sites within the tidal area individual plants and tufts of plants tended to attain the greatest dimensions.
