Abstract
    The expansion of Sea-Buckthorn in dunes reduces species richness as well as the cover of mosses and lichens. The decrease in species richness is likely to be due to the shading effect of the scrub. As many regionally rare plants are restricted to dune areas, the spreading of this densely growing scrub might be a serious threat to the phytodiversity of open semi-fixed dunes.
