Woolston Eyes Flora and
Fungi
FLORA
The following species list is certainly not exhaustive as indicated by recent small scale surveys in 1990 and 1995/6 when almost 50 additional species were recorded giving a total of 215. The list does not give any indication of the relative abundance of each species.
The fungi survey undertaken 2001/02
Key to headings
- - The presence of a species is denotes by a "1" or a letter in the body of the table.
- - The "80" list is taken from "AN ECOLOGICAL SURVEY". The location of the plants was not given.
- - The "MANAGEMENT PLAN" list was published in 1985 but compiled from data collected over an unkown period. The headings are as follows:
- - 1 to 4 - the number of the bed
- - B - flora on the area to the East of No.1 bed before it was lost to waste disposal.
- - W - flora present at Woolston but with the location not given
- - The "83" list was abstracted from an article by D McNaughton published in the 1983 Annual Report.
- - The "85" list was abstracted from three articles published in the 1985 Annual report:-
- - A - from "Aquatic Flora and Fauna" by A Cook
- - B - from "Butchersfield!" by D McNaughton
- - T - from "Trees along the Mersey" by P J Nichols. It has been assumed that the trees were planted on the Eyes!
- - The "90" list is from a survey carried out by the "CHESHIRE CONSERVATION TRUST Ltd",(organised by Mrs E M Nall) on No.3 bed in the summer of 1990. The "N" indicates new species found on that bed and "1" confirmation of the species already mentioned in the "Management Plan" list.
- - The "96" list shows the new/interesting species found in a survey carried out by Mrs R Martin in 1995-6.

Fungi
We are indebted to the Rochdale Field
Naturalists for the following information. They made two visits to the reserve
in 2001, and a further visit last November. The
main areas covered were the lower footpath between no2 and no3 beds, the
woodland adjacent to the footbridge /canal and on the
island itself. Fungi
were more scarce due to poor weather conditions last
autumn.
