abstract:
From the Pantaleo-M. Arcosu district (SW
Sardinia) 14 associations are described, 4 of them (Phagnalo-Psoraleetum morisianae,
Helichryso-Teucrietum mari, Pistacio-Juniperetum oxycedriandOsmundoAlnetum
Glutinosae) for the first time. Prevailing vegetation types in this area are
macchia-associations: in lower parts thePistacio-Juniperetum oxycedribelonging to
theOleo-Ceratonion, in the higher ones theAsplenio-Quercetum ilicis (Quercion
ilicis)a transiction belt, between about 400-700 m asI shows theVibumo-Quercetum
ilicis. Up to the last century, the whole study-area was covered by a dense
evergreen mediterranean forest which has been modified and partially destroyed
by cutting, fire and intense pasture. Nowadays, due also to the protection actions
by regional forest authorithies, the woody species show an increasing vigour and
are prevailing again. These associations at present can be interpreted as climaxnear
vegetation types.
