Italian supra-Mediterranean garrigues

EUNIS habitat type code	F6.65	Level	4
Edition	EUNIS Habitat Classification 2012 - a revision of the habitat classification descriptions.

Description ( English )

Characteristically supra-Mediterranean garrigues of Italy and the large central Mediterranean islands. In the supra-Mediterranean level of Italy and the large central Mediterranean islands, the substitution stages of the thermophile deciduous forests are mostly grasslands or shrubby grasslands, hedgehog heaths, deciduous shrubs, semimaquis or occasionally embryonic garrigues that differ little from those of the mesomediterranean level. A few formations, in particular with labiates of genera [Thymus], [Teucrium], [Salvia], [Lavandula] and others, with [Helichrysum] spp. or with [Euphorbia] spp., may warrant separate listing under this heading.
