Medio-European calcareous scree of hill and montane levels
Description (English)
Calcareous or marly screes of the hill and montane levels extending into mountainous regions (subalpine and alpine), often in dry, warm stations in associations with Stipetalia calamagrostis.
Calcareous screes of the Paris Basin, and more precisely the calcareous fine screes of the thermo-medio European plains irradiating into the lower valley of the Seine (Leontodontion hyoseroidis) may be included here.
