“…badia in the eastern territories of the Iberian Peninsula (Portugal) is present in small mountain ranges with a quartzite character and frequent mesophytic flora, thanks to the continued prevalence of the mesomediterranean thermotype and subhumid-humid ombrotype. There is therefore a significant floristic component with an oceanic character, such as Erica arborea, Viburnum tinus and Cytisus eriocarpus, a community that has been described as Cytiso eriocarpi-Juniperetum badiae, very different from Cytiso tribracteolati-Juniperetum oxycedri which represents the edge of the cork-oak forest Teucrio baetici-Quercetum suberis, according to Pérez Latorre et al [44]. mesomediterranean, and may occasionally reach the supramediterranean, which explains the greater frequency of the microforests of Juniperus.…”

We have studied Juniperus oxycedrus L. subsp. badia (H.Gay) Debeaux in the central and southern Iberian Peninsula, where the macrobioclimate ranges from Mediterranean-pluviseasonal-oceanic to Mediterranean-pluviseasonal-continental, and the thermotype from the thermo- to the supramediterranean. The relevés were taken following the Braun-Blanquet phytosociological methodology. A statistical treatment was applied to establish a separation among Juniperus communities. To understand the presence of Juniperus communities in territories dominated by species in the Quercus genus, we applied Thornthwaite’s formula to calculate potential evapotranspiration. The general cluster analysis clearly distinguishes two groups of plant communities and separates the different associations in each group. All the plant communities growing on rocky crests and in extremely steep sloping areas are significantly influenced by the soil. The ombroclimatic index does not explain the presence of plant communities influenced by substrate, so we proposed a new ombroedaphoxeric index which explains the presence of Juniperus communities in territories with a thermotype between the thermo- and supramediterranean. The areas of distribution of Juniperus species are expanding due to the spread of rocky areas; this phenomenon causes an increase in edaphoxerophilous areas and a decrease in climatophilous ones. We propose four new plant associations, with updated structures and floristic compositions. Efficient conservation is possible in both the territories studied (Spain and Portugal) through the implementation of specific cross-border cooperation projects.

However, these communities, which tend to occur in springs and fens, belong to other phytosociological classes.…”

By means of phytosociological techniques and 254 releves taken both from bibliography (162) and specific field sampling (92), a review of the rooted aquatic vegetation in the south of the Iberian Peninsula was carried out. The survey has led to the recognition of 17 plant associations, 7 of which had not so far been described: Myriophyllo altemiflori-Potametum natantis, Callitricho brutiae-Ranunculetum saniculifolii, Callitricho brutiae-Ranuncu/etum peltati, Ranunculetum trichophylli, Cal/itricho /usitanicae-Ranunculetum penicillati, Callitricho /usitanicae-Ranunculetum pseudofluitantis and Zannichellietum contortae. The research has also provided new floristic, ecological and biogeographical data concerning associations either unknown or little mentioned in the area under study. Each recognised community is classified in a syntaxonomical synopsis and characterised by its main ecological parameters.

“…badia in the eastern territories of the Iberian Peninsula (Portugal) is present in small mountain ranges with a quartzite character with frequent mesophytic flora, as the mesomediterranean thermotype, and subhumid-humid ombrotype continue to prevail. There is therefore a significant floristic component with an oceanic character, such as Erica arborea, Viburnum tinus and Cytisus eriocarpus, a community that has been described as Cytiso eriocarpi-Juniperetum badiae, very different from Cytiso tribracteolati-Juniperetum oxycedri which represents the edge of the cork-oak forest Teucrio baetici-Quercetum suberis, according to Pérez Latorre et al [30].

We have studied Juniperus oxycedrus subsp. badia in the central and southern Iberian Peninsula. Here, the macrobioclimate ranges from Mediterranean-pluviseasonal-oceanic and Mediterranean-pluviseasonal-continental, thermotype from thermomediterranean and supramediterranean. The relevés were taken following the Braun-Blanquet phytosociological methodology. A statistical treatment was applied to establish a separation among Juniperus communities. To understand the presence of Juniperus communities in territories dominated by species of the genus Quercus, we applied the formula of Thornthwaite to calculate potential evapotranspiration. The general cluster analysis clearly separates two groups of plant communities and separates the different associations in each group. All plant communities growing on rocky crests and in steeply extreme sloping areas are significantly influenced by the soil. The Ombroclimatic Index does not explain the presence of plant communities influenced by substrate: so, we propose a new Ombroedaphoxeric Index which explains the presence of the Juniperus communities in territories with a thermotype ranging from the thermo to the supramediterranean belt. The areas of distribution of Juniperus species are expanding due to the spread of rocky areas: this phenomenon causes a rise in edaphoxerophilous areas and a decrease in climatophilous one. We propose four new plant associations and with this update on their structures and floristic compositions, it is possible to make an efficient form of conservation in both territories studied (Spain and Portugal) with specific cross-border-cooperation projects.
