The aim of this work is to analyze the distribution of Anemone nemorosa L. and Anemone ranunculoides L. in the Ivano-Frankivsk and Ternopil regions and to assess the potential volumes of raw materials harvesting for pharmaceutical purposes.
Materials and Methods. To study the current distribution of Anemone nemorosa L. and Anemone ranunculoides L., field surveys of forest areas in the region were carried out. The coordinates of the habitats were recorded using the GPS navigation application Google Maps. To determine the yield of the herb, the method of sample plots was used, while for rhizomes, the method of model specimens was applied. The biological and exploitable reserves of raw materials were assessed, as well as the volume of possible annual herb harvesting.
Results and Discussion. Anemone species are spring ephemeroids with a characteristic short spring development cycle and a summer dormancy period. Ranunculus ficaria L. and Glechoma hederacea L. are often found growing together with Anemone nemorosa and Anemone ranunculoides. The study established that Anemone nemorosa is one of the dominant early spring species in the studied region.
The results of the resource studies indicate that the yield of the aerial part of Anemone nemorosa is 71.3–100.5 g/m², and for Anemone ranunculoides plant is 60.1 g/m². The possible annual harvesting volume in specific localities ranges from 9.16 to 71.63 kg for Anemone nemorosa herb and 7.51 kg for Anemone ranunculoides herb.
Conclusions. Therefore, it is advisable to develop regional guidelines for the harvesting of Anemone nemorosa L. and Anemone ranunculoides L., as well as to implement long-term monitoring of their population. To conserve the species and enable their potential use in pharmaceutical applications, the cultivation of Anemone nemorosa or the implementation of in vitro technologies is considered promising, as it could reduce pressure on natural populations and ensure a stable supply of raw materials.
