Summary
Key words: bog expance, bog pools, bog slope, flarks, hummocks, hollows, lag, strings.
When preparing monographs on the Kamanos and Šepeta mires, Lithuanian researchers had to coin Lithuanian terms for the meso-relief, micro-relief and hydrographic formations of raised bogs. The current article reviews how the terms introduced by pioneers in Lithuanian mire research became established in Lithuanian scientific publications, textbooks, methodological teaching aids, and public documents.
