Popis: We identify only fragments of the original floodplain forests on agricultural land in the alluvium of the lower Vah river. The reason of their elimination is based on the history, particularly because of agricultural land and hydrological modification of rivers. We evaluated biotic parameters of the floodplain forests fragments (life forms, diversity of vegetation, seasonality of leaves and flowering time) in the area of Calovec and Dulov Dvor. As for structural changes of vegetation in these areas, we can conclude that there was a difference in the range of species, in the Dulov Dvor locality hydrophilic population absent and invasive and potentially invasive species are more present (especially at Dulov Dvor locality). Analysis of biotic parameters of vegetation is part of a complete evaluation of fragments of floodplain forests (including abiotic parameters) aimed to restore their original function in the country.
