Abstract
A study of mires and lakes (fossil and contemporary) was conducted in the whole Polesie area, within a framework of the Polish Governement Bureau for Land Reclamation in Polesie. The research lasted for five and a half years and was operated by a peat-floristic group directed by professor Stanisław Kulczyński from the Jan Kazimierz University in Lvov. Map of the Polesie mires was drafted for 12 514 km², 2833 drillings were made, 4357 floristic survey were taken. The documents presents the stratigraphic of mires, their age, vegetation, hydrology and division of mires according to the natural types and genus. The above mentioned study resulted in a monograph of S. Kulczyński “Peat bogs of Polesie” published in Polish in 1939/1940 and in English in 1949.
