abstract Vegetation and plant landscape of the Regional Natural Reserve “Abetina di Rosello” (Abruzzo, Italy). The study of the vegetation of the Regional Natural Reserve “Abetina di Rosello” (Chieti) brought to identify several types of woods and grasslands. The following forest phytocoenosis show to be very interesting from a phytogeographic point of view: beechwoods with silver fir (Aceri lobelii-Fagetum abietetosum albae), gorge mesophilous mixed woods (Aceretum obtusato-pseudoplatani) of which the new subassassociation aceretosum lobelii is described, turkey oak woods (Aremonio agromonioidisi-Quercetum cerridis). As far as grasslands is concerned, the presence of the semi-mesophilous Polygalo flavescentis-Brachypodietum rupestris, typical of northern territories, is highlighted. |
