Abstract
An attempt to define the regional characteristics of the hydrotopography and vegetation of mires in Southern Norway is made. The most important criterion for deciding which mires are the most worthy of preservation is that they must be typical for their particular region. In addition, the importance of locating interesting mire ecosystems of more unusual or extreme type is stressed. 10 mires in Southern Norway are proposed for inclusion in the international scheme for mire preservation, one of which is already protected. Another 23 large-scale mire complexes are considered especially worthy of preservation on a national scale. A further 24 mires, more restricted in area, are also considered to be especially worthy on account of their particularly interesting flora, fauna, or hydrotopography. In Northern Norway 3 mires are already protected, and another 36 mires are proposed for preservation.
