bul04 | This syntaxon was described in great detail by Farris et al. (2013) and ranked as a new suballiance within the Periballio-Trifolion subterranei. Here we recognise the large floristic differences between the Periballio-Trifolion subterranei and the Ornithogalo corsici-Trifolenion subterranei (as already alluded to in Farris et al. 2013: 942) and up-rank the latter to the rank of alliance. We list Crocus minimus, Gagea bohemica, Morisia monanthos, Ornithogalum corsicum, Romulea requieni and Veronica verna subsp. brevistyla as the character-taxa of the new alliance; we also recognise the Ornithogalo corsici-Poetum bulbosae Farris et al. 2013 as the holotypus (hoc loco) of the alliance. (E. Farris, L. Mucina).
