art11 | The position of this alliance is contentious. Rivas-Martínez et al. (1999) placed this alliance in the Agropyretalia repentis and only three years later Rivas-Martínez (2002b: 474) re-classified this unit within the Carthametalia lanati. Biondi et al. (2001) gave preference to the Brachypodio ramosi-Dactylidetalia (syn. of the Thero-Brachypodietalia in our system). In any case, these conflicting opinions have been obviously motivated by the transitional character of the unit that straddles the border between pseudosteppes and ruderal grass-rich vegetation. (L.
