MA251 Mediterranean upper saltmarsh
Open communities of the upper fringe of Mediterranean salt marshes, dominated by annual species, often under the influence of salt spray. The vegetation often occupies small but relatively species-rich patches. Many species are vernal, ending their life cycle before summer, and many are also found outside the coastal region.
