34.332 - Niveau 5 : Pelouses médio-européennes du Xerobromion
Description
Formations of southern Belgium, Germany, France, northern Spain and the northern Apennines. Where they occur in the vicinity of communities of the Festucetalia valesiacae, the latter occupy cites with more continental microclimates than those inhabited by the formations of this group.
Xerophile grasslands of the north-western Hercynian periphery, on mostly Devonian or Carboniferous limestones, in the Mosan district of Belgium and the French Meuse, with outposts in the Ardenne-Eifel of Luxembourg and Rhineland; the stations are for the most part very limited in extent and widely isolated.
