| Résumé : |
"Heathland vegetation of northern Spain, included in theCalluno-Ulicetea, was studied using a set of 802 phytosociological relevés. The existing syntaxonomy has been tested and most of the types (associations and subassociations) fit satisfactorily with the observed groupings. Two main problems were encountered within theUlex dominated communities of the Cantabrian fringe and the Castilian-Cantabrian heathland communities. Both groups of communities were subject to ordination in order to clarify relationships between them. For the former group, ordination suggests that three associations can be distinguished: theUlici-Ericetum vagantis (lowlands up to the submontane belt), theVaccinio-Ulicetum gallii for the communities of higher altitudes (montane belt) and theUlici-Ericetum ciliaris (hygrophilous heathlands). The Castilian-Cantabrian heathlands show a variable Mediterranean influence and have a dispersed distribution due to lithological conditions. This results in the distinction of two new associations, viz. theArctostaphylo crassifoliae-Daboecietum cantabricae (marly, water-retaining soils) and theEricetum scopario-vagantis (sandy soils). A complete classification of theCalluno-Ulicetea in the studied area and short ecological and biogeographical diagnoses are given." (source : auteurs) |
