摘要

The carnivorous plant Drosophyllum lusitanicum inhabits heathland and ruderal sites in Portugal, Spain and Morocco. In the literature, various theories have been discussed concerning the ability of Drosophyllum to survive the annual dry period in summer. In August 2004, we examined: (1) the microclimate, (2) soil parameters and (3) the physiological conditions of the plants on two sites in Portugal and Spain. First, during the day, plants are exposed to very high air and soil temperatures and very low air humidity. The climatic extremes are not significantly softened by the population, only the wind speed is drastically decreased. During the night, on the other hand, very high air humidity and dew formation could be observed. The harsh climate is accompanied by stressful soil conditions. Second, the soil is completely dry, poor in fine earth, calcium and nutrients and more or less acid. Third, in spite of these climatic and edaphic extremes, all plants were green, produced trapping mucilage and caught numerous animals. Far from being affected by these conditions, Drosophyllum showed even better growth and reproduction on more extreme sites. We analysed the root system and found living fine roots missing. The osmotic value of the plants is rather low and water storage organs are absent. Therefore we conclude that in summer Drosophyllum is nourished by the dew at night.
