Description
In Långrälla-Borg, a large contiguous area of hazel-dominated forest is protected - the hazel. Hazel is a very rare habitat type in Sweden. Many of the fungi, plants and animals associated with this habitat type are threatened.
Old pastures
Grazing animals have been grazing on the reserve's land for a long time. The grazing has created a mosaic of sun-warmed glades, flower-rich glades and shady grove environments. In recent years, grazing has declined, leading to overgrowth and the loss of many of the reserve's rare species. To help these species, the southern part of the reserve has been restored and is now grazed annually.
Many exciting plants
In spring, the nettles are in bloom. Blue, yellow and white anemone, together with cornflower, toothwort and cowslip, help to color the land. Orchids such as St. John's wort, helleborine and woodruff also grow in the grasslands. In the wet meadows along Borgmossen, orchids, such as wildflowers and meadow keys, also grow together with the endangered mayflower.
Unusual fungi
In the fall, rare and remarkable mushrooms appear in the reserve. The reserve's rarities include the frost spider and Hungarian deer truffle. Other exciting mushrooms in the area are the stinkler mushroom, olive tongue, spotted saffron mushroom and light meadow finger mushroom. What many of these fungi have in common is that they are lime- and heat-favored. Glades and heaths preserved by grazing animals are therefore particularly valuable. There are also fungi that depend on hazel or oak, with which they have an intimate relationship underground called mycorrhiza.
