Kråkmyren
- Nature reserve
- County: Stockholms län
Actions
Currently
The County Administrative Board advises visitors
against entering the nature reserve. This reserve has been subjected to
extensive infestations of the spruce bark beetle. Dead trees can fall suddenly
and without warning. Be careful and avoid visiting the nature reserve when it
is windy.
Spruce bark beetles attack living spruce trees and
then leave the trees. Thus, there are no bark beetles in dead trees.However,
dead trees are important for many other animals, mosses and lichens, that live
in the forest. The dead trees are therefore left within the reserve for the
sake of biological diversity.
Description
Den gamla barrskogen i Kråkmyrens naturreservat har stått orörd under lång tid. Marken är kalkrik vilket bidragit till en rik och intressant flora, bland annat växer många sällsynta marksvampar här.
Inga friluftlivsanordningar, förutom informationsskyltar, finns i reservatet.
