Diagnostic species of EUNIS habitats

Diagnostic species are characterized by a concentration of their occurrence in the stands belonging to the target habitat type while being rare or absent in other habitat types. For the habitat types of the EUNIS classification (Chytrý et al. 2020), these species were determined based on the calculation of fidelity of each species to a group of vegetation plots representing the target habitat type in a geographically and ecologically stratified selection of plots from the European Vegetation Archive (Chytrý et al. 2016). Fidelity was calculated using the phi coefficient of association (Sokal & Rohlf, 1995; Chytrý et al., 2002) standardized as if each habitat was represented by the same number of plots (Tichý & Chytrý, 2006). The species with a value of phi greater than 0.15 for a particular habitat were considered as diagnostic for this habitat. The statistical significance of the species–habitat association was tested using Fisher's exact test (Sokal & Rohlf, 1995), and if not significant at p < 0.05, the species was excluded from the list of diagnostic species (Tichý & Chytrý, 2006).

Constant species of EUNIS habitats

Constant species are characterized by frequent occurrences in stands belonging to the target vegetation unit, but unlike diagnostic species, they can also commonly occur in other vegetation units. They were determined for the habitat types of the EUNIS classification (Chytrý et al. 2020) based on the calculation of the percentage frequency (constancy) of each species in a group of vegetation plots representing the target habitat type in a geographically and ecologically stratified selection of plots of all habitat types extracted from the European Vegetation Archive (Chytrý et al. 2016). The species with an occurrence frequency in the habitat type higher than 10% were considered as constant taxa.

Dominant species of EUNIS habitats: S51 Mediterranean maquis and arborescent matorral, T1A Mediterranean thermophilous deciduous forest

Dominant species of EUNIS habitats

Dominant species are defined here as those occurring with a cover higher than 25% in more than 5% of vegetation plots belonging to the target habitat type. They do not need to be the species with the highest cover in particular plots and do not need to belong to the tallest vegetation layer. A single plot can have more than one dominant species. The dominant species were determined for the habitat types of the EUNIS classification (Chytrý et al. 2020) based on the group of vegetation plots representing the target habitat type in a geographically and ecologically stratified selection of plots of all vegetation types extracted from the European Vegetation Archive (Chytrý et al. 2016).
